MIL command status: fail
MIL engine off: fail
02 sensor heater circuit malfunction

you can clear them, but that won't fix the problem of something being bad, probably the 02 sensor. Otherwise a local shop that does LS1 motors could tune them out somewhere around you i'm sure.

You MIL bulb is burned out. Take the cluster out and replace the bulb.
p0161- 02 heater ckt malf. need to replace the failing 02(just clearing the code would probably take care of it)
p1416- AIR system bank 2-this needs looked into i would try and have the codes cleared and try e-check again.
But the bulb needs replaced, when you start the car and and the cluster does the bulb check does the MIL come on????

i dont know what MIL is but no lights have ever come on for me ever...it just didnt pass...im gonna call my mechanic and hes a gm specialist so hopefully he will be able to fix whatever it is or knwo where to go
MIL- Malfunction Indicator Lamp. Also know as Check Engine Light.
Replace the bulb if its not coming on and clear the codes after the car is warm.
Dont shut it off then drive straight to e-check it should pass.
I would also think about taking the HPP3 programming out.
I could take care of it for you if you mech cant. im in the Akron area.
