remove the battery cables from the battery and let the car reset. return the cables and start the car up. If you continue to get a CEL then something is not hooked up right or you knocked something loose. You should not have a CEL at all with the SF kit.

My light has been on for about 5 months, every time I reset it it just comes back on again. A friend at Honda ran the codes and pretty much it is just the different air flow and running a little rich that the ECU cannot read- nothing bad- oh and I have an EX. Nothing bad going on just a confused ECU IMO.
This is nothin that some black electrical tape can't fix

I have 2 CELs one for the IAT sensor not being hooked up (SF doesnt drill a hole for a gromet and connector) and one for o2 voltage. The IAT sensor needs to be hooked up I plan on drilling a 1/2 inch hole in the charge pipe and using my old AEM gromet and connector to connect the IAT. Go to autozone they run code scans for free.

i thought the CEL would come on no matter what if the cat was removed,and on a LX the cat is removed...or is it just where the sensor bung holes are placed it gets a clear reading?

plus the 5 inches of snow on the ground here and the single digit temperatures round here, would get me in the garage to even try
