next time you post, try english!

anyways, I doubt that you are getting water in your engine, not from just rain. If you drove through a deep puddle you would suck up water, but It would blow your engine, not through a code. When does you light come on? when its raining? fix your post then we can help you.

okay...... i was in a hurry sorry about that ^^..... anyways, the light came on when it was raining... i thought it was the water going in the intake causing it....... but yesterday i took of mypostive side of my battery and the put it back on to reset everything.... after that i went in my car and turned it on and the light was not there no more.....1 more thing, this is not about this but... i got a tachmeter for my car. 4 colored wires.....red, green, white, and black...... red is for power and black is ground of course..... but what is the green and white for
???

green goes to the gray w/blue stripe wire off of pcm, and white goes to a lighting source

If your car was sucking up rain water you would probably experience heavy mis-fire and worst case scenario a motor that would vapor lock (lock up). How's it running now?
