Question Pre-cat & j-pipe install w/ CEL! NOW WHAT

just installed my HFPC's and rv6-v3 j-pipe today and theres a CEL on, what should i check for? Does unconnecting the battery take it away by anychance or is there something i should look for. Didnt have time to figure it out son got home as soon as i was wrapping up so i had to clean up to take care of him. Let me know thanks!

Did you put on the Sensor trickery things on the right way? If your sure you did, go to autozone and they can pull the codes for free. Write them down and it'll tell you if it is indeed the O2 Sensors or something else.

It should be okay for the time being; it'll probably go through a lot of fuel though if it is the O2 sensors.

you most likely didnt install the sensors right.
go back over the install. might even have to play with the sensors to get it just right.
