adams2003 Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 My check engine light recently came on and Im not sure why. Im wondering if it has anything to do with my supercharger. The truck seems to be running great. Has anyone had the same problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 Go to a Autozone, they'll check and clear the code for you. Unless you already have a scanner, EFIlive.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 ther are many codes that can set in the system so it's pretty hard to find out the reason. you can also just drive it a couple days with it on and if it goes off i wouldn't worry about it. if it stays on then something has likely failed and will need to be replaced.

Revenoor Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 Happened second day of ownership for me. Scanned the truck and result was "massive leak in evap system". I was advised to check gas cap to ensure it was tight. Silly me just grabbed the cap and twisted rather than LOOKING. Turned out to be the plastic attachment from body to cap was caught in the cap. I had captured it when I had last fueled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobrayankee Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 If Autozone won't do it for free (our local one no longer does it at all), then just disconnect the battery for 10 minutes or so to see if it resets. Hopefully it was an intermittent thing or a fluke. If that doesn't work, I highly suggest investing in a scanner that reads AND clears codes. I have the Auto XRay and it's one of my best investments. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcswain Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Could be as simple as tightening your gas cap, this happeed to me, must tighten cap till it clicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSmoothSilSS Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Its probably the gas cap, it happen to me a couple of weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adams2003 Posted December 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Im not sure what it was? It wasn't the gas cap because I checked that as soon as the light came on. It just went away after a couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayster Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Im not sure what it was? It wasn't the gas cap because I checked that as soon as the light came on. It just went away after a couple of days. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My ss was parked for a week and half so when I hit the auto start it would not fire up. I jumped the battery and bank she fired up and all seemed ok. While I was driving down the road my light came on and will not go off. The truck seems to be running fine so I took my gas cap off and tightened it up til it clicked. Now the light is still on. I guess I will go to autozone and get it read. I hope after they rest it Im good to go because i looked and I cant find anything wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
