Default Need help with CEL

Just did a CEL check, I've got five problems:
electrical load detector
knock sensor
primary O2 sensor heater
secondary O2 sensor heater wires
fuel tank pressure sensor

Anybody know what I need to do to fix these?

what kind of engine or swap are u running. for the o2 sensors. just replace them with new ones. for the knock sensor, u can bypass it or get a chipped ecu.but again, it depends on the engine and ecu u are running

As far as I know, stock ECU, and the engine's a D16Y8.

knock sensor CEL only comes on when ECU detects excessive shake/vibration from engine.are all your motor mounts good ? and fuel tank pressure sensor is a rare CEL, i guess check the wires and maybe simply replace the sensor

Haven't checked the motor mounts but a guy at an auto-cross a while back told me the bushings were going out and that I should replace them. I'll probably end up replacing all the sensors that are bad since that's the easiest way to go about it. Thanks man.
