Emissions stumper Okay, first my o2 sensor went out giving me the p0130(I believe that's what it was). Fixed that and SES went out for like 2 days and returned. Of course emissions wouldn't pass cuz of that. Next went to get it read, it was o2 codes again. Had them deleted and codes went away for like 4 days. Of course, as I was going to emissions to hopefully pass, code came back. This time code of P0420. That being the cat. Had that code deleted so it wouldn't read and setting set to Ready. Went to go do emissions and it failed cuz the SES won't light up from the MIL(whatever that is). I'm not sure what it is. It stumped Horist and all. I have a 1998 z28. Maybe it's cuz I got a car from that year, but he used HP Tuners to delete the codes and set my stuff to Ready. Does anyone here know what it could be?

Don't understand this description really. But I've been
wondering when the powers that be, would catch wise
to tuning and push the latex glove in deeper.
On my car codes for no-longer-present gear that are
set to "no error reported" don't prevent the checks
from moving to "Ready" status. Not that '98s couldn't
have some special clownery embedded.
Have to go through the list and make sure any of the
codes that are bugging you, got the right kind of "off"
(easy enough to get the wrong pick off the chooser
etc., or have some other thing holding off the test
from readiness that you didn't see the last time; a
half dozen O2 related codes, and failing one means
the rest may not be reported 'cuz the test aborts,
etc.).
Or maybe it's just a '98.
