trac off light acting weird
Tuesday, March 25, 2008 11:11 AM
Ok, a month ago, I was doing some work with the air intake system and this light came on. It turned out that the vacuum line under the box between the filter and throttle body had a hole in it. I replaced it and the light went out. I just had my exhaust system completely redone header back and it came on again for a day and went back out by the next day. To be safe, I checked the same vacuum line and it was fine, and i had the guy that did my exhaust check it out and he laid down some heavier welds around the o2 bung. Driving back home from the place, the light came back on. Any ideas?

i checked the iat, it's tight and hooked up, i also checked the sensors on the throttle body and they all looked good, it's hard to tell cuz the car seems likes it's running normal, so i think it's some minor air leak somewhere

ok, so it's been 4 days since i had the exhaust completely redone. The trac off light has been coming off and on repeatedly. Then, today, the check engine light came on. I took it to midas, they said the front o2 sensor popped off. I buy that's the reason the check engine light came on, but would that be a reason for the trac off light to come on (and it's now on constantly)? And is it normal for the o2 sensor to pop off when it's been taken out of the stock manifold and put back into a header because they want me to pay for the new sensor, but i think it popped off because of faulty instalation, and their work is still under warranty.

correction, they said the sensor was fried and not working, it didn't pop out.
