does your CEL come on as soon as you start your car? or do u have to run it for a while before it comes on? if it doesnt come on at immediate startup then u need to drive the car till the CEL comes on then check it with the car runnin while the light is on. mine did the same after my swap. i tried with the car off but in accesory mode and it wouldnt work i had to drive it make the CEL come on then check with the car running
