Hi all, Two days ago the check engine light came on. When I drive for 5 min the light comes on.
 I have a 3sgte out of a Caldina (ST215) and the use the stock JDM ECU, so I can't get codes from it. I don't see anything leaking and the car runs great. I have put about 800 miles on the car since i did the swap. What should I check first? |

Thanks for the info alltracman78. I was sure that all 97+ engine (no matter what market they come from) were OBDII. The best person to answer this question is Dr Tweak : Hey Tweak, did you ever seen a diag box in any of the harness you did from a ST215 ?
I had 2 ST215 harness and none of them had a diag box somewhere in the engine room wiring harness. So, I assumed that if it isn't in the engine bay, it would be in the cabin. The best thing to do should be to go at an engine importer, look at a caldina ST215 front clip, and inspect it to find a diag box. |
