CEL light after DP Install

What's up. Recently installed VSRF downpipe with the intentions ordering JB4 to remove the light. However, I've found out that JB4 does not allow you to remove that light with the new firmware update.

Will MHD clear the CEL?

Thanks!

Yes mhd can clear it. I believe if you change a few values in winkpf you can clear it out for the jb4 as well. Very easy to do with MHD you just check/uncheck the box for it before flashing

Did you order the CEL delete from VRSF as well?

No, I haven't ordered the fix. My worries are mainly if I will be able to pass inspection in NY.

JB4/MHD will suppress the CEL light coming up. Keep in mind this is not a 'fix', the code will still be there. You will not pass emissions since the monitor will be in an incomplete state.

To pass you will need some sort of DP fix...there's a few options out there.

Didn't BMS remove JB4's ability to autoclear codes and the CEL?

Yes, you can add it back via a few methods though.

MHD nor JB4 will allow you to pass catless, only going back to stock or having a DP Fix.

However, if your state inspects visually or actually sniffer it still might not pass.

That’s not something you want to use every day. It alters fuel trims levels.

You only use that before emissions.

Correct, I've read similar posts suggesting to do the same. Thanks!

CEL appeared after installing DP fix

Hey guys..
I know it's an old topic but i need some support on this:

I installed N55 downpipe on my F33 4 days ago and installed the dp fix yesterday.However, the CEL appeared today while driving. My question is, did this happened because of the previous average readings (for the past 4 days) ?

And will it disappear by itself or i have to clear it ?

Note that, i have carefully installed the fix by following the instructions and the LED is on.

Thanks
