Hey there

Did you read my article about check engine lights?

Check Engine Lights Explained

I would make sure you plugged in all the sensor and electrical connectors and vacuum hoses that might have come unplugged by accident when you did your repairs. Double check all your work and all wires and vacuum hoses to make sure they are plugged in where they should be.

If you don’t see anything unplugged, you will need to have the computer codes read by your mechanic to see what the problem is. It is probably ok to drive the vehicle with the YELLOW light on, but you might see a drop in fuel economy and engine performance.

Blessings,
