    Default check engine light ?

    I was wondering if there was a way to prevent the check engine light from illuminating with EFILive (due to aftermaket exhaust or intake). Maybe to modify the parameters it has to see before it sets a code. Which table is this?

    8.2 @ 86 (1/8 mile) stock cam and spray
    8.6 @ 84 (1/8 mile) cam and heads no spray

    That will turn codes on/off or stop the Light from turning on.
    I don't think we are able to change the condition in which sets the code.

    eg make the parameters broader in which it sets a code (desensitise)

    Cheers,
    Dave.

    You can change the condition(s) in so far as how many ignition/trip cylces are required for the code to set.

    ??
    It does not have an option for select controller under "file"
    (nor "enter VIN")
    I tried entering the VIN on the right side but nothing changed.
    I think I'm doing something wrong again.
