What is This Light?

imelmo · Jan 13, 2013

Just came on today out the blue. Is it a filter or something? I've got an AFE and it's pretty clean so not sure why it'd be coming on if that's what it is.

Air filter restriction. I'm guessing the gauge in the intake may be bad.

Weird.

Had to replace mine year or two ago. Wasn't too expensive even at the dealership.

Yup. Popped the hood and it had come apart somehow.

Danny - oiled filter or dry filter?

imelmo · Jan 15, 2013

Dry.

Just remove the filter minder. I had mine come apart on my 04. I found all the pieced under the hood and put it back together with superglue and never had that issue again

We had one of ours come apart too. When i glued it back together, i glued the plunger down so it always thinks the air filter is good. We check the filter during each oil change so it's not really needed. Light hasn't came on for about 7 years.
