Default What happened?

I had a rear light out indicator, which turned out to be a bad bulb for the brake light. So I pulled the bulb and figured I'd keep it out so I could take it in and buy a replacement.

I also had both fog lamps out, so I checked the right side and pulled that bulb. Initially I disconnected the connector for the air flow sensor and pulled the air cleaner out until I realized this was a remove the front lens and get to it that way replacement. I thought I had a good replacement bulb, so I plugged it in, started the car and turned on the lights. Still had a bad bulb.

After I started the car and realized I didn't connect the air flow connector back in, so I plugged it in and put everything back together.

Now I have a check engine light and the trac light is flashing.......what's going on with this?

What should I do? Pull the EC-1 fuse and reset it?

Thanks.

I did the same on mine...I think I pulled both EFI fuses and it cleared the <check engine> light.

After I wrote my message I went back and started the car again, both lights came on then went out. That was the 3rd time I started the car after I re-connected the air flow connector.

It must have reset itself automatically after the 3rd start.....

I'm glad it wasn't something major.

Thanks.
