I had my valentine 1 hardwired today into the rear view mirror wires. Now the service engine light is on! Do i need to reset the ecu or did something go wrong with the install? Did this happen to anybody else? Thanks for any help. I did try and search for the answer, but could not find it.

Go to your local auto store/friendly neighborhood shop and ask them to read the code for you. I don't think it's possible to throw a SES light doing what you described. Afterall...it is a Service ENGINE Soon light...

That's what i don't understand. I did not do the install myself. The local car audio shop did it. So i really don't know what he did, but i did have to reprogram my stereo when i got the car back.

That(re-program stereo) means he disconnected the battery before performing any work, always a good thing. I can't think of anything that could have thrown a SES light under these circumstances. Try the TS ECU reset(it's a bit tricky and you have to be very precise with your timing...always takes me a few times to get it right). The light will go off, if it comes back on it means there is an actual problem that needs correcting.

Thanks! Did the reset and the light went out. So far, so good!
