Default PCV and engine light

Installed catless and PCV with map. O2 plugs in the harness. I keep getting the p0134 and p0154. I clear them and two starts later they come back.

Are the O2 sims(optimizers) not supposed to be installed?

There's ways around it, if you wait they will come.
Or go over to ECM section Steve Cole and Fuel Moto are the guns there and they help even if you're not running their stuff.
If it's not affecting anything else I'd ride it,if it has the check engine light maybe not? , it could be something as simple as the wrong sensor type selected for the tuner. They're 02 codes too I think so yea it might be something simple .
Cheers man HTH.

The directions for installation of the PCV, what do they state for your year? Attach the O2 sensor eliminators or leave them attached?

Directions say to use the sims but they are general install directions so, IMO doesn't say for the M8. The maps for the M8 are scarce to, none even specific enough for a 2-1-2 with slip-ons. Only a few maps. I was rather surprised by the lack of maps.

Well this is fun, dynojet doesn't know at this point. p0134 and p0154, both sensors high level. They want me to ohm them out. naturally my ohm meter went dead on saturday and I do not have another until tomorrow.

His idea was maybe HD has changed something on the '18's. Highly doubtful that both 02 optimizers are bad or backwards.
