^ If you are still running with stock tune, there is a flash calibration to correct false heater codes.

To the OP, buy the Corvette sensors. Your 100K sensors probably aren't switching as fast as they did when they were new. I'm sure extentions work, but they are another connection that could eventually fail.

No stock tune. I don't know what calibration you're talking about however I know you can tune out the error code. With that you're still not fixing problem.
