Default I need some advice!

I took my Crossfire in to the dealer for the TSB autostick transmission leak. Got it back today. It looked good, no lights (like last time) then halfway home the dreaded 'check engine' light came on. Obviously going back to the dealer is an option but we were planning on leaving for Tucson tomorrow. I would check the pin connector but I can't find it. I'm going to look at the service manual on our site here but time being of the essence I'm posting this before I start looking. It's eleven o clock in Pasadena, 2AM on the east coast.

Is anybody still up?

Well it looks like it's back to the dealer. Since the cars in warranty I didn't even bother buying a code reader. My Caddy just spits them out on the dash display.
That puts our launch off to Friday and we have to be back Sunday Night. Being in the saddle for 16 hours for a one and a half day stay just doesn't make much sense to me, and that's if they get this thing in and out tomorrow. Arizona is just going to have to wait!

Or you can get your codes read for free at AutoZone or Checkers.
The reader at my local AZ could not connect with the Crossfire so I went to Checkers and theirs did. Do they have Checkers in CA.?

So are you going to make the Tucson trip? I may miss out if my ECU doesn't come back in time.

Thanks tighed1, I've never seen a Checkers out here, doesn't mean there aren't any, just never seen one. No, I've reversed my plans for a Tucson encounter, so I won't see you at Jack in the Box on Ina.

I hope you get your ECU back in time. I'm still waiting for the Chrysler service guy to call me back It's about a sixty mile round trip, so I call the guy first to get some assurances that they'll get on it right away. Since I can only get a ride at night, I sometimes leave it and pick it up from the sales department.

Sorry 'bout the car problems and the fact that they are keeping you from joining us in Phoenix.
I heard from TVT_Design and the ECU should be here today.
I'll have a burger for ya at the track!

Thanks tighed1, Be sure to make that a cheeseburger without relish. Glad to hear you're getting the ECU in time. Have fun and good luck!
