I can't believe this!
So I go to get the FD smogged today. My ride has few mods, Apexi PFC, P Farrell Super cars exhaust (cat back), dp, HKS Twin Spark. Well the damn thing past-well at least the emmissions part-with flying colors. All numbers were below average. We get to the check engine light and because the thing's not working (I think that a result of the PFC), I failed the test!!! My question is do they just check to see if it's working or do they read codes coming off of the ECU? It's looking like I'll have to replace the PFC with the factory bt before I do so, i'd like to make sure. Thanks for your help.

im almost positive they dont get codes. my old auto teacher(smogger) said thats the first thing he does cus it doesnt matter what it is, its an automatic failure.
just pull the bulb. j/k
go to kragen, rent a OB1 tester (i think is what FD's are) and scan it, it will pop the codes, then you can clear them if you know they are errors. then no more light!!
