SO the other day I was out doing some doughnuts (in grass) :thumb: and on my way home my CEL came on. Now whenever I turn my AC button on I get some sort of humming from the engine bay. So I went to advanced auto to try to get the code pulled and they can't do it. So two questions. How do I pull my code and any ideas what I could have hurt? I know I'm stupid for doing it in the first place so let go ahead and skip that part:nono: . Thanks for the helps.
 
The light is something stupid probably. Something with emissions. The humming with the a/c is normal. Probably the fan or the compressor. Do a search for checking the engine light, your car is obd I thats why they could not check it. You can check it yourself with a paper clip, just search. May tell you how to do it on vfaq.com, not sure.
 
thanks, I never thought to check vfaq's site. But the humming noise is something new. Its not a quiet little buzz, its a loud ass hum that is audible with the windows up and the radio blasting...I'm starting to thing its not just w/ the A/C b/c it did it while the a/c was off and I was rolling up my windows with the head lights on. Could it be some type of voltage issue maybe? I knows its not the alternator b/c its charging the battery. NO MORE DOUGHNUTS!!!!:barf:
