Default HELP??SES LIGHT FROM HEADER INSTALL

I've got a check engine light ever since I put my LT headers in my 2000 Ta.I used o2 simms in the rears.I made sure all my plug wires are on securely,and I have double checked all sensor wires. What's the deal <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

Not sure what year your car is, but AIR tubes or EGR hookup?? I'm not sure if the AIR throws a code or not, but I beleive the EGR will.

Try going to your local autzone or Pep Boys and see if they can scan your car for DTC's. Usually free. Make sure you get the code number and post it in here.

If you want help you have to provide detail. I tried contacting Ms Cleo to find out what your DTC was only to find out she's in jail so I guess you'll have the post the DTC yourself.

you were supposed to delete the codes with edit if you blocked them off
or you should have gotten the headers with the egr and air hook ups

Make sure your 02 simms have
4 wires not 3 wires.
Simms with 3 wires suck.

If you have a EGR on your car and you put headers on it without EGR provisions then that is exactly what your SES light is detecting. I just put my LS6 intake on and that's the light I am throwing too. Same thing different part.
