i forget the exact #s, my mechanic ran it tho and said its the code for an O2 sensor, didnt specify which one, but like i said that shouldnt matter b/c theyre all brand new, along w/ every other sensor in my car

Run your ECU codes right now and tell me what you get. Read the stickies for a how-to on getting codes. Get the codes, post them up, and we'll try to help you. There is also a how-to on resetting the ECU CEL light.

The only time the front 02 sensors will trigger a CEL light is if the ECU receives a contant value.
