Any comments? Questions? I need some solution or something....

ahh...after like 3 days it kicked back on...friggin sucks...and my srs light has been on for years..haha...i've been a lazy *** and haven't did the DIY yet...oh well...
it comes on every once in a while for no reason just to let the driver know to change the oil, even right after a oil change. it's pretty useless, but i know how to get rid of it. you put the key in the ignition(without turning it ), hold down the tach button for 10 seconds, then turn on the ignition(while still holding the button down for 5 more seconds, then you let go of the button. the light should then go away for a while.

as long as u have some sort of difference in exhaust gas cleanliness from o2 sensor 1 and o2 sensor 2 it shouldnt come on, it usually comes on bc the 2nd o2 is reading the same if not worse than the first one, i dont have a cat and i have both sensors in, i dont get a CEL bc of that, the only light i have is turbo related
Whenever I was taking off my neons, I was sorta pulling on the 02 sensor on the cat because there was a wire zip-tied to it, and the engine light ended up coming on. After a day or two it went off, though.
