Cel ?

This just started yesterday... If I go to start the truck and wait of the WTS light to go out, when the truck starts the CEL stays on... On the other hand if I start the truck not waiting on the WTS light I get no CEL... Anybody have any ideas... I know scan for codes... but I havent gotten that far yet... or bugged anybody to do it...

Darn, beat me to it. That is what I was thinking. Kawa will know as he has been fighting this problem for a long time. Don't know if he ever resolved it though.

Nope the truck is not a Cali truck... also, the CEL does not seem to affect anything nor will it turn off... but if I start the truck waiting on the WTS and the CEL comes on.. immediately turn the truck off and restart it ignoring the WTS I get no CEL... I do know for a fact that I have a burnt UVC plug, which I guess could be my problem..
