ever had a CEL for your intake?

I have had my short ram intake for about a year now. Back in january i got a CEL for my O2 sensors (front ones), i got new ones and didnt put them on till couple months ago.. i still had a CEL for the same O2 sensors..... so i was planning on buying some more... yesterday i went to my cusin's house to get his stock resonator(intake) to put on my car... someone on here said that it would eliminate some of the lag you get front the after market intakes... so i took off the mid pipe and i put on the stock resonator.....and after about 10 miles the CEL went off..... i have driven about 40 miles since and it still hasnt come back on yet.... do you guys really think that the intake could have caused the CEL for the O2 sensors?

your light might be off the the fault is still stored.

you can have faults in the system and light not show up, like a knock sensor. not sure why things trigger and why they dont trigger a light.
