The check engine light comes on when the SmartStart interlock system detects a problem with the breathalyzer sample and needs a urine sample. Pee in the SmartStart unit and if you're clean the light will go off.

It's cute that you actually thought this thread would go well for you.

Return to the installer and have them check the code...

You have a Ford. You should expect it to be a piece of crap.

Those things are very simple. I had one before Katrina. The company skipped town after Katrina, and I thought it would be complicated to remove. It took like three minutes to take out. Just two snap clips and one thing wired in a series. Oh yeah, I had to cut some zip ties. That took an extra minute.

Either the company did a shitty job installing it, or your truck is a POS Ford. Get it scanned at any auto parts store

In this day and age, why the hell do cars still need to have this extra step to tell you what their warning "codes" mean?


I've wondered this too. Especially with all the other warnings. Mine tells me exactly which bulb is out but can't tell me my spark plugs are going out?

I've heard that the humidity in LA is hell on the some of the EcoBost sensors. Maybe the humidity from your breaf is adding to the problem.

Anyway. Call the judge and tell them about the issue.

In all seriousness I’d be concerned. My 09 Corolla that caught on fire on the new bridge had the engine light on for a few months before that fatal afternoon. Get it checked out or at least avoid the bridge.

You are lucky it runs at all.

It's too bad you can't find anyone to blow for you.
