Your UD pulley isn't sitting right on your crank shaft, there is some kind of sensor for vibrations, this has been a common problem with the underdrive pullies. Especially seeing it was the last upgrade you did.

I think the same thing, I took it off and put it on a 2nd time but I still got the light. I think the bottom pulley is defective. I'll let you know what happens thanks for the help.

I just got off the phone with Steeda and they told me to remove the crank pulley and re-install following the directions again, they said if the pulley is not seated perfectly it will cause a light vibration and it will activate a sensor, probably the crank sensor, and throw an engine light, so I will do as I'm told and pray for success.

Thanks Don. If it keeps happening he said I can put my old pulleys back on and return the Steeda pulleys for a new set or refund, I think a store credit will be fine!!

If you are still fighting that and want to try the stock air box with a tune give me a call. That would at least rule out the Steeda air intake. Or just stick the stock pulleys back on...

Give me a call if you need help.

Brent i didn't want to bother you yet, I have a strong suspicion that the pulleys need to be taken off and re-installed again. I will call you if i figure it out. It's been 5 days and the light has not come back on yet.
