Hi all, Two days ago the check engine light came on. When I drive for 5 min the light comes on. frown.gif

I have a 3sgte out of a Caldina (ST215) and the use the stock JDM ECU, so I can't get codes from it. I don't see anything leaking and the car runs great. I have put about 800 miles on the car

since i did the swap.

What should I check first?

could you plz, post some pics of the diagnosis box located under the steering wheel in your clip? This would be some good information to keep. And, if you have time, would you remove the harness that include the diagnosis box from the clip.

And, again, if you have the time, could you remove the wire looming out of the harness to inspect which wires are going to this diagnosis box, this could be nice to analyse the way this diagnosis box works.

Feel free to say no to all these steps I want you to do. But, if you are as curious as me, I'm sure you'll understand my point!
