EML light on permanently!
« on: 18 April 2012, 21:43:14 »
Hi,
My first post here!
I have a 51 plate Omega Elite.
Over the past few weeks the EML light has been on. Computer says it is the Cats.
Have changed those. No change.
Changed cat sensors - no change.
Changed mass airflow sensor - no change.

Car seems to run absolutely fine - no problems at all with EML on.
Concern of course is if I get a real problem - how will I know?

I have come to the conclusion that it could be an electrical fault - but where?
I am not a mechanic of any sort but would appreciate some (helpful) advice.
I am not looking for - take the bulb out or get rid of the car!
Thanks :(
