how do you reset engine light on mk7?
I installed a cts turbo bov and engine light turned on.
I was reading somewhere to disconnect the battery for 10 minutes.
I did that but now there is engine, steering & traction control light on :lol:

Go to a parts store and have them reset it with a scan tool. Or you could buy you your own. Even the cheapest one will work. It's a good tool to have.

cts turbo bv description saying that it should not cause the engine light to come on.

Anyone else having this problem with blow off valves?

If the stock one was recirculated and the new one is atmospheric then it could potentially throw a code.

How about you go and get the code scanned and reset for free at the auto parts store. Post the code they give you and we can help. It could be something unrelated.

CTS Turbo is proud to release our 2.0T Atmospheric BOV KIT for EA888.3 equipped vehicles. The CTS Turbo 2.0T Atmospheric BOV KIT (EA888.3) is made of billet construction and completely serviceable. Our kit is designed to work with all of the factory electronics, will not cause any check engine lights and is plug and play with no wiring extensions required. The CTS Turbo 2.0T Atmospheric BOV KIT (EA888.3) replaces the factory plastic unit which has been prone to failure from torn diaphragms, cracked plastic, and electrical malfunctions. Our piston design ensures long life, easy installation, complete serviceability, great sound and great value. This valve is quite compact being slightly shorter than the stock unit and fits nicely even in the tight engine bays of today's VAG cars.

I only drove the car for little bit after installation and engine light came on. I emailed CTS Turbo company to see what they have to say about it.

CSB. Get the freaking codes scanned and post it. Until you do that there is absolutely no way to tell what the light is on for.

P2006

I applied some connector protector lube on the intake manifold sensor and autozone reset the check engine light, works fine now.

That appears to be unrelated to the BOV so all should be good.

Its the sensor that connects to bov. Check engine light came on again.
I put the stock dv back on and no more engine check light.
