When driving uphill in a low gear the Check Engine light turns on, why??

Have you done a check:

1) Run the car to norm operating tempature.

2) Turn Car off

3) Locate the two black connectors under the dash near the steering colum on the drivers side. They should be seperated but might be taped up to the other wires.

4) Connect them

5) Turn on ignition, not engine! Just the ignition and the 'check engine' light should flash repeatedly in sequence, if the flashing is irregular then let us know what the flashes are ie:
short short long
long long short etc

Than why does this only happen when I'm driving uphill and in a low gear, and not when I'm driving my Scoob like a maniac on the track?

And i can't get any error codes eigther, not even with a full system check at a Subaru dealer! Some ideas,

Take the Check engine light bulb out!!!

I had prob on mine and had it to various dealers on the rolling road done flash tests etc and everything was running fine

In the end took bulb out as it turned out to be something to do with signal being sent which was incorrect...

All caused by VTA Dump Valve

I'we got a Forge atmos. dup valve, can this be the awnser?
