The dme detects that there gone by reading the difference from the first set of o2s to the second set. The first set was pre cat and the second set is post cat.

Interesting. When I installed my secondary cat delete pipes I have had no issues with CE lights. There is a O2 sensor fore and immediately aft of my primary cat. There are NO sensors around the secondary. I have passed NYS emissions with no problems for two years now and have never had a CE light come on. I have an '02 2.7 model. Keep us posted on what you find that is triggering the light.

AndyA6... you have the bypass pipes on an '04 right? The o2 sensors are on the primary cats. Adding the bypass (secondary cat delete) pipes does not effect the operation of the o2 sensors. Go by a cheap, $50 code scanner and see what comes up. I always clear the code and ignore it the first time. If it comes back, then I will see about doing something. Actually, I have cleared a code for an “aging o2 sensor” about 5 times now. I probably should do something about it.
