Check engine light-intake?

I tried doing a search and I couldn't get it to work-my computer really sucks, so... try not to scream at em to do a search. Anyway-I just wanted to know if anyone was having the same problwm I was having. I had an intake installed and about 3 months later my check engine light came on. When I took it to honda they said it was because of the intake and they couldn't shut it off. I just wanted to know if anyone else is having the same problem or is I have to get a new sensor and intake. Thank you![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Thanx for the help! I don't have the same intake as that person, but mine was something to do with the sensor. They said even if I replace the sensor it's just going to happen again, but I have a feeling it was installed incorrectly and that's why it's coming on. So I just wanted to know if anyone else has had thier check engine light come on with an intake.

They did reset the computer, but they said it came right back on. I did replace the sesor but they said the wire was spliced and the sensor was full of apoxy, so I'm assuming that it did something to the sensor. As long as no one else is having the same prblem I'm just going to get a new sensor and a diffrent intake. Than guys!![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]
