Urgent!!! SES LIGHT?? I disconnected my coils and pulled them and the valve covers off to polish them up a bit. Got everything shined up and put back together and started it up. Now, engine is running really rough and SES light is flashing. I have checked all connections on coils and plugs and can't find any loose. Any ideas? I know it's probably something simple and will feel like a total a$$ after figuring it out but for now, I'm stumped. Any suggestions?

Re: Urgent!!! SES LIGHT?? I'd defintely go and recheck the plug wire connections on the plugs and coils again. Make sure you didn't damage a wire when taking them off. Also, make sure you plugged the coils back in to the wiring harness.

Re: Urgent!!! SES LIGHT?? The ses light has done this before and it was in the coil harness on the right side. Got it fixed then. Well after about two weeks, I noticed a pinging noise in the exhaust, sounded like someone threw a few pieces of grave in the converter on the right side.(While it was messed up, it was back firing ALOT, one right after another)Anyways, the pinging got worse ad worse and then one day it just quit. Ever since then the ses light has been on but the car runs fine. Could it be that I blew apart one of the converters? The car is quite a bit louder now than it used to be before the pinging.
However, now the ses light IS flashing! Still trting to figure out where I went wrong. Damn cars!!!(I mean,owners who work on them and think they know what they're doing) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />
