Light on the dashboard..Need help!

[R3b00T]

I read the manual and it says the symbol has to do with either the brake fluid or there is a problem with the brake system. I checked the brake fluid and its full. Anyone encountered this problem before?

Just drive it as little as possible if your worried. If it flashes you have a big issue, if its on solid and car seems to run fine then just drive it in on Monday.

Could be anything... did you do anything to your car recently?

Did you remember to tighten the gas cap properly and close the gas cap door completely? lol

Its still under warranty but i installed a catback, headers and overpipe... Did'nt tuned it yet, got a booking this coming 26th

its probably your headers causing the CEL. only way to get rid of it is with a tune.

I would find out what the CEL is before doing anything. The dealership may not be the best place to get a diagnosis with your current mods. You seem to be in way over your head if you think a check engine light is an electrical problem.

Theirs the answer header change even catted header will usually trip P0420 cat efficiency CEL code.

Yea, it's a CEL being tripped by your headers. Common problem and it's why I haven't gotten a nice header yet.

About taking it in to the dealership, since the CEL is being caused by an aftermarket part that you installed they won't fix it for you, and it could cause issues for your warranty. Even after you get the tune the dealership won't cover any ECU problems under warranty anymore. Hope you're ready to spend your own money to pay for repairs...
