- VEII SSV Redline edition
Hey guys,
I've just recently picked up my VE II SSV Redline edition. I'm happy with it (had a S1 SS and 6L Calais in the past).
I installed a VCM OTR intake and stupid me left the wire that goes to the CAS? (it might not be the CAS but I think it is), loose and went for a spin around the block after installing the OTR and the car turned off and check engine light came up.
It turns out that the wire rubber up againest one of the belts and did slightly chew through the wires plastic and I guess probably gave a spark to either the sensor or the ECU. I have since tapped up the wire and put it out the way safely, the car runs fine. I've since done around 1,000km's in the car and every now and again the check engine light comes up however it doesn't appear every time I start the car.
Is this a design feature and it needs a propper reset from the dealer, or? I don't want to take it to the dealer for them to say that I need a new CAS at the cost of $X,XXX or that my warranty is now void so I'd prefer to resolve this issue before taking to the dealer.
The only other mods to the car is a 2.5" cat back, the light came up before the cat back was installed.
Regards,
