I put DC headers on my car and now my check engine lights is on!?
How can I fix this problem, I think it's because the location of the O2 sensor is lower than the stock. ????

need more info like vehicle, year, model and such. and also you dont have headerS you have header. not flaming just informing for future referance.

Its crazy but try this, get the code read at autozone or something, then when it most likely reads 02 sensor (im just guessing) go from there but how can we help you if you dont get the code read from the computer?

also check the connectors and make sure the o2 is not faulty...

oh yea... also... did u try and reset the CEL? because if u reset it and then it comes back on you have a problem... sometimes it might get tripped but the problem may go away

You put headers on your car, so your check engine lights came on? I think you need to stop doing two of everything.

the 02 sensor ones mean u screwed the 02 sensors up, if wires extended well then they arent connected rite, but since you have an EX u shouldnt have extended anything, so im guessing u pulled a wire out of the plug a little, ive done it not hard to fix..... im guessing once u fix the 02 sensor codes you will get the fuel code fixed to

what he said... just trying unplugging the connector and inspecting it to see if any of the pins are bent or popping out.. plug it back in reset the ECU by unpluging the battery.. and try it again..
