Installed Van Aaken box today but engine warning light stays on. Then when I tried to remove the unit could not disconnect the VA male map adaptor from the female map sensor plug (on the wireing harness). Which way should the red lock be pushed - I'm assuming in to release, right ?

What to do?

 

The red lock on all the sensors & electrical connections get pushed outward to release. Some also have tabs close to the wire harness that need to be pinched to released after the red tab is pushed out.

 

Whew - finally got the disconnect. removed the VA but engine light still on. Can't accelerate now.

 

Check for codes... You might of tripped a overboost code.

Basically I would double check your wiring on you VA again. Check your grounds and power leads.

 

alls well - thanks for the help.

 

What was the problem for those of us who might have the same problems.

Thanks
Bill.

 

The MAP connection sounded as though it clicked in place but had not - needed to snap the red button shut by hand.
