Berk HFC Service Engine Light

ARrado15 · 11-07-2016, 05:27 PM

Hey all,
So i'm trying to get my car to pass emissions, and every time the computer does it's self tests it passes everything but the O2 System. I have had this car for a year now, and have not changed anything on it in the exhaust system, so i'm curious as to why it is now failing. I have the BERK hfk's and I know that they can fail the inspection, but it didn't fail last year when I purchased the car. Do you guys have any idea on what I should do to get this system to pass? I don't have a sniffer test, all I need is for the self-test to pass so the system goes into a "ready" state... Will steel wool work?

I was told by the dealership that I will need a catalytic converter soon. I was thinking about installing Berk HFC's, from what I understood, they will pass state inspections outside California. Were your HFC's on the car when you purchased it and eventually passed the first time? If so, maybe a defouler would work.

Get an OBD scan tool. Check for any DTCs. See what your O2 sensors are doing.
