I don't have a check engine light on my dash, I have had several codes pulled and have a thread about them somewhere. My question in this thread is where should the light be, and if the light is burnt out how do i fix it?

thanks

 

the light should be on the actual dashboard and it is sort of right next to your speedometer.. what is the issue with the car?

ok so then what is the 'ln2' that blinks in my odometer when i start the car?

 

Well it is possible to throw codes without a CEL, they usually just aren't that serious. However, if the codes you pulled seem like they would normally warrant a CEL, you should look into replacing the bulb.

the 1n2 thing is the service reminder, theoretically when you're supposed to take it to the dealer and grab your ankles. If i'm not mistaken there's a DIY on audiDIY.com to get rid of it, i don't even notice mine anymore.

 

These are the codes it's throwing. I would assume 7 codes, especially these, would warrant the light.


P0102 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circ Low Input
p0116 Engine Coolant Temp.Circ Range/Performance
p0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) - Flow Insufficient
p1101 02 sensor low voltage (pre-convertor sensor, bank1)
p1106 02 sensor low voltage (pre-convertor sensor, bank2)
p1408 exhaust gas recirculation temperature( EGRT)sensor - high input
p1504 IAC valve

I looked on audiDIY but it specifies that procedure for 01+. I'll give it a shot and see if it works on my 96.

 

ok so lets assume i need to replace the bulb. How do I go about getting the cluster out to do that?

thanks

 

SuperSquid - If I am not mistaken, LN2 light is the service reminder light, comes on when you pass a certain mile limit.
