Default Wild Code Bonanza!!!

The blue vette in the sig is relatively new to me. Had it only a month. It's my fourth vette and my second C5. I'm mechanically competent.

When I bought it, the car was completely stock. The guy hadn't even disconnected the CAGS.

So, a week ago, I changed the oil, lowered it, pulled out the CAGS and inserted a 2.2K ohm resistor, and painted the calipers. Nice day's worth of work.

Today - all these codes pop up

P0102
P0412
P0418
P0443
P0449
P0801
P0803

The 800 series is related to the CAGS elimination as well as the reverse lock out. So I got under the car, pulled out the resistor and reconnected the stock CAGS connector.

I clear all the codes.

Then I drive the car around - all the codes come back??!?! Every single one.

Suggestions?
