check engine light on
I just had my cats removed and I installed the O2 sims. Everything was ok for a while, then the light came on. Anyone know why this would happen, I thought the O2 sims would take care of that. I unhooked the battery for the night and I will hook it back up tomorrow. But is there anything else I need to do?

Re: check engine light on (sprayedc5)
I would check to see if you have in codes. Follow the instructions from the tech tips section :
You can acess all of the cars trouble codes from the dic and erase them! . Here is what you do:
Press and hold options and then press Fuel 4 times while still holding the options button you must do this quickly. A message will appear saying "Diagonstics" then it will automatically read off the codes. Like....02-PCM(No codes)....03-BCM(No Codes)...ect. if there is a code it will look something like this 02-PCM (1052H) NOTICE THE H at the end of the code, That represents a code that has happened in HISTORY. If there is a C after the code it is CURRENT.
To clear the codes let it automatically cycle through the codes then it will come to (MANUAL DIAGNOSTICS) this is where you can clear codes. Use the options button to scroll forward and the TRIP to scroll backward find the code(s) to be erased like 02-PCM (2Codes). To erase this, press and hold the reset button until it says "NO CODES" There you have done it!!!. To exit the Diagonstic menu press the METRIC BUTTON!!!
Good Luck
