Ok quick update:

I used a programmer to wipe the code so the check engine light is currently off and time will tell if it wants to return, I am guessing it will since I did nothing to fix the mystery.

Car has been running now for 20 minutes parked in driveway here are some general stats:

Water Temp: 220F
Oil Pressure: 28 PSI at 800 RPM's
Oil Temp: 210 F
Voltage: 13.9 Vdc
Tire Pressure on all 4: 32PSI
Fuel Level 3/4 tank 91 Octane with one bottle of Octane booster
Note: I normally don't use octane booster BUT when I do a 4 hour round trip I like using it. I am careful NOT to add too much so I don't burn up o2 sensors.
Note2: Octane Booster was added to a full tank and since I already drove prior having gone through a 1/4 tank of gas I don'r feel the octane booster has anything to do with the issue.

I don't really know what could have caused those 3 lights to come on A) Key FOB error, B) Check Engine error C) Low Tire Pressure when none of those things seemed out of place.

Now normally I can say when ever the car threw an error code it was my fault, ie: seat removal, Instrument Cluster removal, Stereo removal, Dash Gauges being replaced, windows don't go up, etc. You guys know all the little things we trip up when doing work to our cars BUT that being said in every situation when I was the one to cause the car to have a fit I was able to clear the errors presently by following the procedures those who have been there prior to me which is why I love this forum as it has helped so very much because I have had my car so far taken apart I actually wondered if it would go back together but it did with a couple added scratches (Dam) I hate working when I am rushed....

Ok gotta go but will check back soon.
