i have an SAFC in hand i need to install....but..........
1. some one posted a liknk to a web site that first time i asked this, and it was a great link and was everything i need, so i printed of the pages and had then on my dinning room table, and those pages along with other papers where turned into nothing by my lil puppy so i need the site that show the wire diagram from install a safc please.......
2. once installed.... will my check engine light come on when i change the settings to it? i ask because my buddy's integ has one, and his check engine light never goes off, the car is fine, but since the computer is being tricked, it never shuts off...
thanks a bunch guys.
use the search button to find your old post
found the old topic, and the link and re-printed 6 copys since i am at worka dn its not my paper and ink......... about that check engine light though........ can anyone witll help with that one?
repost the link
not sure about the check engine light , ive never messed with a safc
is there anyone out there that knows this one? i know there are gm tuners out there that have the answer to this one.
but does the check engine light come on?
that helped alot, thanks for the info...... please, if anyone has anymore?
i am not istalling this, a shop is, and they are dyno tuning it too, i was just wondering, because there the vw i drove before my cavi never turned on the check engine light unless it was a major problem w/ the motor.

Well then, I hope for your sake that you're not installing this, because your ECU can throw a code without the light coming on. As Siler&Black said, it just depends on the severity of the offense.

Just so you know, that code only comes on for a very short period of time. Say if you start up your vehicle and that comes on, when you start driving, maybe 30 seconds later, it will turn off. It's a short appearing code.
Now, if you throw a resistor, yeah, it will get rid of the code but remember, an SAFC-2 is like an electronic resistor already, so you would have to tune incorrectly to what the SAFC says (example: Your SAFC would say -5 but you would really be at 0). Adding the other resistor will send a signal to send more fuel so you would have to tune it down or up according to the addition fuel amount.
I hope that makes sense to you.
In my opinion, it's not really worth doing if you have a code for a serious short period of time and doesn't effect you afterwards.
