Did you ask the emissions place?
It might be that it wasn't at operating temperature yet or something

you have to drive the car thru a complete drivecycle in order to complete the monitors readiness!

just drive around for a week and then see if its ready!

pull the neg battery for a few min

start the car up cold

let it idle until warm (fan comes on 1x)

drive the car at speeds of 25-60mph for at least 6miles

that should set most of your monitors if not all
