Stillen intakes installed

Elmo370z · 09-14-2014, 05:46 PM

After installing my g3 intakes, my vdc loss of traction, brake light, abs light are all on. Can anyone help me with this?

That's strange. I'd start with resetting the ECU.

ECU Resetting Procedures

Timing is extremely critical. If it is NOT DONE within the specify time, the ECU will not reset and the Check Engine Light (CEL) will continue to remain ON.
A stop watch or an analog clock with a second’s needle will be useful.

Operations Procedures

1. Confirm that accelerator pedal is fully released, turn ignition switch “ON” and wait 3 seconds.
2. Repeat the following steps (2a and 2b) procedures quickly five times within 5 seconds.
2a. Fully depress the accelerator pedal (HARD).
2b. Fully release the accelerator pedal.
3. Wait 7 seconds, fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for approx. 10 seconds until the CEL starts blinking.
4. Fully release the accelerator pedal (while the CEL is still blinking)
5. Wait about 10 second.
6. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for more than 10 seconds.
7. Fully release the accelerator pedal (The CEL light will continue to blink).
8. Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position and now you can start the car. The CEL light should be gone.

If the CEL light continues to remain ON, repeat the above steps. Timing is EXTREMELY critical to resetting the ECU.

Glad they didn't make it too easy!

Yeap, just bought one because of my wife's car chasing a misfire code. 6 plugs, one new plastic valve cover after discovering a soaked plug, and one coil pack later, all is good.

Nah. Bluetooth dongle from amazon $20. Buy the torque app. $10. Read all your cars on your phone, tablet or laptop. Done.

100x better. Gets you on board gauges for live feedback.

Did they turn off on their own, or did you reset the ECU?
