Default Installed Injen CAI and got a CEL

The cell is PO605 which is:

- Open or short circuit condition
- Faulty ECM

anybody know what might be the cause? The car only has 6K miles so it cant be the ECM.

Reset your ecu yes, taking the battery out is a bit excessive.

This is a good idea when installing HFC/Test Pipes, Cat Back and intakes. The ECU recalculates to adjust to the new bolt on.
