transmission light turned on....? :(
 
just got a full agency power exhaust installed in my car with the cat mid pip. had my transmission light turn on, is this due to the new mid pipe i had installed or would this just actually be something serious i need to have looked into??

please any advise?? :dunno:

Transmission light? Do you mean your check engine light?

Presumably this means AT light.

jasonrxeight 03-04-2010 06:28 PM

hummm its not good. get it checked asap

Who ever installed your exhasut could have hit something on the transmission causing the light to come on or there could be a problem and have nothing to do with the exhaust install.

You mean CEL(Check Engine Light)?

You will usually get a CEL if you install a midpipe. Some people on the other hand don't get it. It should be no problem. An AP can mask the CEL. Other than that if it is this case it should be no problem at all.

I bet he thinks the CEL light looks like a transmission, i guess we will know for sure when OP decides to post again

Lol. I suppose we shall.

ya i actually looked at it when i got in the car this morning. so ya it would be the check engine light. after looking at it it does say that one of the reasons for this light going on is for emissions sensor reasons which makes since since i took off the cat converter. so its prob nothing just the sensor picking up the change in the cat pipe.
