    Light doesnt come on when car is started, takes about a minutes drive, there is like some soft of a little whistle.

    codes being thrown at p1516 and p1221 the TAC and etc. wondering if there is another reason im not catching.

      The whistle sounds like a vacuum leak. I had a problem with the elbow that sits on the left side of the TB. Had to fab one up, but solved the problem.
