joshbarragan Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 hi all, so this afternoon i decided to adjust my tps as i was getting a couple of degrees turn on the butterfly before the sensor was picking any movement up. got it as spot on as i could with a little help from the mrs! so now it drives like a different car, response from the throttle is a million times better! but now when you floor it the orange engine light eliminates? only if you full throttle it though. if you give it 75% throttle its fine put the go to 100% and the light comes on?? before the tps would only go up to 97%.anybody got any ideas?? cheers josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 put a paper clip across the 2 pin socket next to the glove box and take note of the flashes of the eml with the ignition turned to II.there is a downloadable manual on civic5 that has the fault codes in. or you can just post back and someone will help.

joshbarragan Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 hi mate is there two blue plugs coming of the same bit of loom? i put the clip across the one with two connections and the eml stayed on permently. what does that mean? cheers josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 It does that if you start the car or put the paperclip/wire in with ignition on. Put the paperclip/wire in then turn ignition to II but dont start the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshbarragan Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 so ive tried reseting the ecu as described in othere topics, but still getting the same problem. it will pull all the way through the rev range fine as long as you dont hit 100% throttle. hit 100% throttle and at 4k and the light will come on???
