Default Check engine light just shut off! and the bulb didn't burn out.

I had a check engine light come on and i think it was for the 02 sensor. Well i changed it aand then reset the ecu and it came back on right away. After 300 miles or so on the new 02 sensor the check engine light shut off. i checked the bulb and its ok. What do you think?

sometimes the ECU will that, my buddy removed the cat (with o2 sensor) in his car and it took like 200 KM's before the engine light came on! same thing when he put it back in ( 100-200, before it went off)

i'd say yours is just fine!

i have a 00 si and my check engine light came on, i went and got the the codes pulled and it was for the 02 on my header. i have a DC header and the guy said it was normal for it to come on, is that true? the light came back on today and i unhooked the battery to make the light shut off. will the light keep comeing on or is there something else wrong?
