    matanong ko lng mga tol, kelangan ba dapat kpg sstart ko na yun oto ko dapat bng hintayin ko muna na mamatay ung CEL(check engine light)?

    un kc ang sbi skin nun kakilala kong tuner ng honda eh at specialty nya mgaus ng mga ecu

    pro nasubukan ko na din nman na istart ung oto ko na di pa patay ung CEL at ngstart nman cya.kc ung iba kong kakilala na kapreho kong oto d nman nila hnhintay mamatay cel bago start.

    kung sakali bng gawin ko na start agad at d na mghintay mwala CEL eh may masisira ba sa electrical ng oto ko?

    The check engine light is a diagnostic tool, it would be on upon key insertion and will turn off - if all systems are okay - upon ignition. A CEL which remains on when the vehicle is in motion needs the attention of the service center.

    BTW, Please refrain from using textspeak. Mapagkakamalan ka pang jejemon dito

    Normally naka ON naman yon. It turns off once the engine starts.

    Opo, okay lang na start mo ng naka on yun. Hindi naman ata nagooff yun ng nasa "ON" ang igintion switch mo.

    Like I said, "ATA" because in some cars the CEL light is lit until you start the engine. In some cars the CEL turns off in a few seconds like In your case, you can wait for it to turn off or you can start it right away. Either process will do.
