Reported fix · Original poster
I didnt shut it off w/ durametric, instead I disconnected the neg term for @5min and restarted it. The cel is gone, I didnt get a chance to drive it (foul weather).
Leading evidence: 'Disconnect neg term' (1 discussions report resolution; 0 report an unsuccessful attempt). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'gone' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Disconnect neg term' (1 discussions). For that action, 1 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. The most frequently reported fix is 'Disconnect neg term', supported by resolution reports in 1 discussions. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

With the 2nd generation EVO CAI, the problem is gone.

Suspected cause
Yes, if the problem is corrected or if corrects itself then the DME turns the CEL off.

You would think that if its a MAF issue it would run like crap, but its running great.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

With the 2nd generation EVO CAI, the problem is gone.
If your gas cap is loose, or if you put gas in the car while the engine is running, this will cause the CEL to light. If it is either of those issues, it will take a few cycles of turning the car on and off a bunch of times before the light goes off.
Could be as simple as that. Good luck.

thanks guys... I have the durametric and no codes, I unplugged the neg term and now has no cel light. Will updated this as time goes on and will try to pinpoint the prob. Might have an intermittent issues and enough to latch the cel light even though the prob has come and gone... again, thanks guys
Something does not make sense - the CEL comes on and stays on until the fault is corrected.
What happens if you turn it off with the Durametric Software?
Redridge, I had an intermittent CEL due to my first generation EVO CAI. It probably had something to do with the positioning of the MAF in the intake tract. With the 2nd generation EVO CAI, the problem is gone. Is it possible that your problem is similar due to the S/C? Good Luck.
Did you ever get an updated 1/4 mile time with the new plenum? I'm still enjoying one of your pictures as my screensaver, Thanks.
Loren,
Im w/you I always thought that cel are on until the prob is fixed, and since it cleared (cel), the prob must be gone.
I didnt shut it off w/ durametric, instead I disconnected the neg term for @5min and restarted it. The cel is gone, I didnt get a chance to drive it (foul weather).
Question: if a fault comes in, triggers a cel, then problem corrects itself, will the fault code still be displayed even though the fault is corrected.
I just cant understand that a cel is present but shows no fault code... (BTW I drove it with the cel and it drove great).
Its possible its an issue with the MAF but you would think that it would at least trigger a code... the car runs great, and the cel is gone. You would think that if its a MAF issue it would run like crap, but its running great.
As far as 1/4 mile time, I havent gotten a chance I have just been more focused on some DE events... will PM U when I do
Yes, if the problem is corrected or if corrects itself then the DME turns the CEL off. Depending on the problem it can be a different number of drive cycles.
