Engine service light
Posted: Fri Nov 07, 2014 1:17 am
Hi Gentlemen ,
just joined , bought the wife a Kizashi early March this year 2010 model .
When we took it home the first day it was all fine , the next day the engine service light appeared , I looked on this great site and found some information , removed the plug from the emission control valve / solenoid and sprayed with WD 40 lubricant , next day when started , no light , I thought fixed .?
Anyway , now the light has appeared again - I have removed the solenoid valve and cleaned with carbie cleaner then flooded with wd 40 and also powered the solenoid from the battery and the solenoid works every tine it is activated .
Last night reinstalled the valve and removed the Positive battery cable to reset the computer , started the car , and no lights , yippee thought all was ok , took for a drive and worked it pretty hard and all was great .
Left the car for about half an hour and went out to start and the engine light came back on .!!!!!
Tried the petrol cap seals perfectly .
Any other suggestions , when the light is off the car performs perfectly , so transmission ( auto ) works perfectly .
HELP !!! please
