I have a question about my mil light... It keeps comeing on and I keep getting it turned off because there is nothing ever wrong they tell me its junk codes.. I have seen the screen there not lyeing to me I am hoping someone might know a reason why they keep coming around with these weird codes that dont mean anything..how do I fix it? there just junk codes what should I do

Do they clear the codes?

Try unhooking the battery for 30 minutes or so and then hook it back up...That has worked on some other cars...

yeah iv unhooked the battery numerous times... I had an H pipe put on and put mils on and it started after that would I get junk codes because of that? I mean I had it looked at before and it was converter mailfunction then I put the new mils on and its been a frickan headache... just weirdness alll the time.. I ll drive for a day or two then it will come back on.. ill unplug the battery and it will go off and com back on in two days then ill take it in hae it looked at and more weird codes.... think it might go away after long enough of screwing around with it just kinda let it run its course? lol im out of ideas besides buying a code reader for 500 bucks and erasing the codes every two days lol

There has to be other issues...

Maybe your mils are malfunctioning?

Get your computer read and write the codes down and post them up for us...Someone will be able to tell you what is going on possibly...

same thing happened to me a while back when i installed my MILs, CEL stayed off for a day,and the next it turned on....took it to autozone and they said they were the o2 sensors,duh,anyways i had bought the ebay splice in MILs and they sucked so i bought the plug&play ones from steeda and those lasted a good 6 months,they went to shit already,but since i have a tuner i just turned off the rear o2 sensors,CEL gone!!
