Default Engine light issue on but no DTC's

Ok Jexperrts have an engine light on but no DTC's. Have refilled tank and reset gas cap(the usual culprit), but no help. Only thing new is installed new Cobra 29DLX wired directly to battery. Any ideas?

Default My two cents

I get a check engine light every time I go to the hills and run on gravel and unimproved roads. I looked in my manuel and found that if you do run on gravel roads the check engine might come on but it will reset and the next day or so it will be gone. And that is what exactly happened. It goes on and off all the time when I hit the dirt roads.

Maybe you have had that experience or not.
