So just driving along and my CEL and tracktion light come on anybody know why??

 

Well checked the gas cap and my SRI unhooked the battery for 10 mins reconnected no lights let idle for 10 mins see what happens

 

For the CEL do you have access to an OBDII reader? It would give more info on the problem, if any.

 

Dude, what a coincidence, on my way to work yesterday mine came on too. I know why the Cel came on but I don't know why the traction light is on. I have an aem eti intake and that is what is causing my weird idle, and sometimes dying at a light. But I have no idea why the traction control light is staying on now. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you diagnose it? I have a scantool. When It finished it came up with code p0172. Going to try and clean the Maf and replace the o2 sensors. Otherwise I'm just going to return it.

try using CRC MAF cleaner. disconnect the battery, take the MAF sensor off the intake spray around the MAF about 10 times and then let it air dry, then reinstall it.

 

traction light will always come on with CEL in toyota vehicles

 

I have a generic Sri I'm assuming that caused it but the car isn't running weird

 

im sure just cleaning the MAF will work. i had the same issue about a month ago after installing gas pistons for my hood i guess the vibrations disturbed the MAF sensor so cleaned it out turn on the car and both lights were gone.

 

Thanks for the replies back, I know what the code means and what the problems could be I was just wondering if anyone would post their solutions is all. So I installed my aem eti intake a few months ago and haven't had any issues till now. The check engine light was reset, also the ecu 1 and 2 fuses were pulled and reset. I installed my tsudo cat-back exhaust on Thursday and so far no Cel. Thanks beallstar13 for the info, I never would have thought that.

 

had the same issue with Takeda CAI

Solution is to recheck all your connections and make sure that the rubber tubes didint slide of the SRI or the intake valve

if you still have the issue then you need to contact the manufacturer and they may have a solution available. If not then youd have to get rid of the SRI to remove the CEL.

I ended up just taking out my Takeda and putting Weapor-r SRI in and I had no issues since
