Default ECU

is it worth getting it reprogrammed.. our check engine light keeps coming on. we reset the ecu twice and it still comes on after a few trips.. honda said its because of the aftermarket cat.. its a 98 DX with a EX Header ,Cat, Mid&rear section... i dont like having the light on.. can anyone help... much appreciated... The 2nd O2 was after the cat on our stock manifold but now its before the cat...

The second O2 needs to read after cat gasses. I assume you are getting a P0420- catalyst deterioration code? The second O2 sensor on civics is mounted in the rear of the cat. I take it that your 2nd O2 is just before the end of the A-pipe. Where is the first O2?

You need to relocate that second O2 behind (after) the cat.
