Default CEL Code 41 with VAFC

hey guys, what's up?? My friend and I just installed my VAFC on my H22 accord(thanks for the sweet deal killa_lude) and we ran into a problem. After doing the initial setup, we started the car and got a CEL code 41 (H2OS). Also, the analog throttle gauge doesn't show any response when hitting the gas. We followed the instructions from apexi's website but still a no go.. Have any of you ran into this problem before?

I'd double check the wireing. sounds like that could be the culprit

the throttle was turned off on the VAFC. Had it set to ** instead of the arrow pointing up.

What's funny is that I disconnected the VAFC and reconnected it and the CEL went off. Guess its fixed!! Thanks guys
