cel eliminator

hi guys

not much of a poster on here but always looking and i have a question for the experts

i had a de cat put on the exige just after christmas and as expected the engine managment light came on
so i ordered a cel eliminator from jperformance and fitted it but the light did not go away
managed to get rid of it for a bit by plugging in a code reader of my mates and reset it but then after a couple of drives it has come back again??

anyone else had any trouble with this?

someone did tell me to buy another one and piggyback it but i thought i would ask here first

cheers guys

Get used to the light ?
Sorry … no real help , but , if you mod , the ecu will always throw a cel …

Speak to Wayne at Sinclares now Essex something or another.
you can trick wire the post cat lambda sensor. he did mine took all of 10 mins.

Wayne mapped my car with decat on and CEL in, the MIL came on after a few journeys (having been off due to Zorst & airbox mods…hence fitting the CEL). I removed the CEL (at JSR) on a hunch and cleared the codes. No light, no trouble since. Depending on your mods it may be worth having the car mapped so it runs to its optimum setting…then remove the CEL and clear the codes…it worked for me.

I had this problem after decat, JSR did the electronic fix which didnt work so he got a small part to space the sensor on the exhaust further away from the flow of gasses and touch wood its been good since, not sure but I think johnnyfox has the same?

cheers guys
will try putting an extra space in as my mate has one i can use
then if that does’nt work i might try a re map but was going to get the new 2bular manifold first then just get it maped all at the same time
mods i have are 260 upgrade, TRD, forge intercooler, 8x22 2bular and silenced de cat

I’m very interested to see what that will map to …
Similar spec to mine but no remap …
My mil is permanently on due to other reasons too so its not an issue that concerns me .

Be silent 175 bhp boy…
My lights on cos I switch my ABS off !
:wink:

just thought i would update you guys

i put on another spacer a couple of months ago

not the one from jperformance the just a standard one that was about an inch deep and it seems to have sorted the problem

not sure how long it took though as i just happend to look down the other day and noticed the light was’nt there

happy days :slight_smile:
