Max Capacity Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Stop by any auto parts store, they will ready the code for free. If it's a simple non-recurring CEL it will reset it's self after four start cycles. Or you can pull the - battery cable for like 15 minutes. But seeing how your new here and asking, have the auto parts guy read the code. There is a sticky at the top of one of the forums with a list of all the codes. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/trouble-codes-cels-26113.html Or google the code. I think you can connect the service connectors and turn the key to on the code pop's up in the odometer. Just don't start the car with connectors pluged in. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

Max Capacity Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 if your good you can even do the start cycles while your driving. Push in the clutch, shut of the engine, start the engine, repeat, just don't be a idoit and bring the key all the way back to lock the steering. Oh yea, OP it's normal for the cruise light the blink in these cars with CEL. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).

chucks05legacy Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 I have started the car many times since it started- so it wont reset on itself. I did just recently install hids which reqd me to unplug daytime running lights. But that was week ago- and bo issues until a 250 mile road trip.

PoisonousBeef Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 You need to have the code pulled for anyone here to be helpful. As stated, most auto parts stores will scan the car for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongHiway Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Or, you've not tightened the gas cap enough. I only thought this would throw a code in the winter but, I did it again in May. A few days later, after tightening the cap, the CE and blinking cruise went away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
