Yellow Engine Light

Yellow engine light came on. Car struggling until it warms up. Has a cough reaction. Feels like it wants to stop. Cuts off when I pit in reverse. Everything was fine until motor mounts installed. Had a tune up and it got worse. Please advise.

To find your trouble code in your car, (if you have an EVIC) turn your key from the off to the on position (NOT start) 3 times fast. Leave the key in the on position and your error codes should appear in the EVIC. Then you can find it on the list. Do that first just to see what error code pops up.

Another way is to go to your fuse box in the engine compartment and pull fuse number 11. Leave it out for a few minutes then reinstall it. That clears out the code. If there is no current problem, the check engine light should not light up again. Here is a video guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIPBDgraN1E
