Default SES turned off by itself?

So I put test pipes on my car a few weeks ago, and I've had the SES light come on and I just ignored it and had a set of non-foulers ready to be put on when i was going to change the oil. But about 3 days ago the light just turned off! The test pipes already have somesort of non foulers, but i don't think it's a long enough extension... Has this happend to anyone else? Oh I have strup test pipes btw.

does the light still turn on when you start the car? If not, check the bulb.

Its possible the computer saw the readings w/in correct range enough times in a row to turn the light off. but I have no idea why this would occur. Maybe the non fouler is full of carbon and isn't letting the badness touch the O2 sensor?

just throwing out ideas.

The light will go off and on till it eventually just stays on, put the antifoulers on get rid of your headache.
