    Question Check Engine Light - After PCV Replacement

    I have just replaced the PCV in my VX, and now the check engine light is on. I have checked all of the connections and fit, everything looks good. Also, now until the engine is warmed up, it will stall after putting into gear. I don't know if the computer needs time to reset or if there is another issue that I am missing.

    Anyone experienced this? Does anyone have any insight into this issue? Appreiciate some help!!!

    Did you disconnect the battery for 20 minutes or so to reset the computer?

    Just did this. Figured I'd give it a try, and you wrote the same thing while I was doing it (weird). Anyway, so far so good. Will update if anything goes whacky again.

    The other thing to try is to put the old one back in. It's possible that the one you bought is defective or the wrong type for the VX engine (mis-packaged).
