Check engine light P1259

[mailforritu]

I have 2002 Honda Accord. I got Maintenance required light, so I took my car to service station and they changed the oil and filter. After two days I got Check engine light, when I took the car back it gave me code P1259. Any ideas what this could be? It says Fuel air metering, but not sure what could be damaged. Service station guys reset the code for me and asked me to drive the car and said it could be fluke.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks.

VTEC System Malfunction-05

That what my DTC library says.

Make sure your oil level is up to the mark. If oil level is OK you will probably need to clean the VTEC solenoid screen.

Good luck,

I think oil level should be fine, as it was not leeking, and oil was changed 2 days ago.

Thanks

VTEC system is activated by oil pressure. If oil level is low or oil filler cap is loose, it may trigger the engine light.
Did the engine light come on the second time?

It was reset yesterday, so far no issues.
