TurboEdit and CEL
 
I am running TuboEdit NG48-3BAR on a turbo ZC and when the car is fully warmed up the CEL will come on at an idle. I have checked the ECU and there was no code. Today I was running the car with the ECU laying on the floor with the cover off and when the CEL came on at the stop sign I looked down at the ECU and there was NO light on in the ECU. I know it works because I have had a O2 senser code come up and it would flash for that. We just put a chipped PM6 ECU into another car today with the NG48 using a stock MAP for the D16a6 motor and that car is doing the same thing, CEL at an idle but no flashing red light in the ECU.Anybody else have this problem? Is this a common thing with TurboEdit? Or is it a bug in the NG48 code?

Nobody has ever had this problem? Its happening on both of the ECUs that I have running TurboEdit. They were chipped by different people and the base MAPs were downloaded from 2 different web sites and they are being run in 2 different cars. Seems strange that I would be the only one that has this CEL at an idle. ???

The car runs the same when the CEL is on as when its off. This only happens at an idle. If you give it a little gas to increase the RPMs the light goes out but as soon as it idle back down(800-900RPM)the light comes back on.I do have a new O2 senser so I don't think thats it.

Change your cluster, and see if it still happens.Something similar happened to a friend.

Gotta be a short...

But on both of our cars? I don't think it would be a short on both of our cars. Now on my CRX (the D16a6) it doesn't do it all the time.

So now its two cars?

So you have two cars and two ECUs and on both cars with both ECUs its doing this weird ----?

Do you by chance have one of the CEL light features turned on in the ROMs your are burning to your chips?

You could always send me the ECU(s) and Ill take a look at what it does on my car.
