MIL Light

Driving back from my parents last night, taking it easy and all of a sudden my MIL light popped on.

Now I have a MIL Eliminator fitted which went on when I had my sports cat and exhaust fitted so I don’t know why this has happened.

Is a MIL Eliminator a physical piece of wiring or something added to the ECU to trick it?

I’ll take the car in to get it looked at but just thought I’d pick some brains here first :slight_smile:

I think it means your AFR is too lean and some of the pistons have started to melt. You need to drive 300 miles on WOT to get the MIL to go out.

Speak to JFK… :smiley:

Spoken to Sinclaires who where very helpful as always :slight_smile:

I’m going to pop it in to them, but Wayne has told me a way that I might be able to reset it myself. However I’ll still get it checked just in case there is a fault that needs sorting.

The MIL Eliminator kit only over rides the lambda issue when using a decat kit.

If you have a OBD tool you can see what it is, mine occasionally comes up with ‘idle RPM too high’ then disappears after a while.
