So WTH is that... Now even when I pull slightly around a bend the engine light will come on but I hear no beeping like other people when thier oil is low. Why would this be. Am I messing something up around turns like running low on oil. That would suck. I would imagine it could just be a sensor.

 

It sounds like 2 things.
1. a loose connector or ground that looses contact in turns.
2. Old bad stored codes in your computer

To clear codes on your 7 do the following.
1. disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. hold down the brake pedal for 5 seconds or more.
3. reconnect negative battery cable.


Try clearing the codes first. this should help

 

U checked your Oil i take it? if so check the oil related sencers etc for damage or loose conections.

In fact to be sure i would do an oil change. u never know.

 

check washer fluid level

 

are you sure it's the check engine light and not one of the others?

 

Mine did that. I had to reground the trailing coil. But my tach died as well, so probally not the same thing. But it is worth a check!

 

Thnx for all the input.. Yes I did change the oil and It was the check engine light.lol. The windshield washer fluid is empty though. That sounds interesting. I will fill them up. This has been going on for a wile but its been coming on easier, like less Geez. No not the cheese the geez. Its been doing it before I started playing with all the wires in the body harness so the coil ground probly not it. Anywone else??? thnx for the input and I will try some of your suggestions. I will try the code thing right now.

 

You sound like a mumbling old hobo Clyff.

 

If it is a valid CHECK ENGINE light, wouldn't the ECU store some error codes?&nbsp Try doing an error code scan on your ECU...

BTW, if your cold solder joints are bad, it would cause an intermittent CHECK ENGINE light problem that's actually a solid CHECK ENGINE light!

Well I have tried to pull codes before and none apeared. The 89-91 I thuoght stored anything that apeared with the check engine light. Aparently not. Or mabey my green tester is faulty....
