97 catalytic converters - 5/8/2008 12:48:24 PM    freddyp   Posts: 2 Joined: 2/8/2008 Status: offline I just replaced my cataytic converters & pipe in my 97 suburban - The check light is on coding to catalytic bank 1 and bank 2.  I disconnected my battery for an hour (hoping to reset) but it is still on  -Someone mentioned I just need to drive it a couple days for it to reset itself, but that doesn't make a lot of sense.  Does anyone know what it could be (it was an after market factory bolt up replacement - non californina - not just weld on catalytics) Post #: 1

Sometimes disconnecting the Positive (+) battery cable and touching it to the Negative (-) post of the battery for several seconds will clear codes as well. _____________________________ Dave (in reply to freddyp) Post #: 2

You don't have an exhaust leak do you? quote: Sometimes disconnecting the Positive (+) battery cable and touching it to the Negative (-) post of the battery for several seconds will clear codes as well. Wow.....never heard that one before Dave. _____________________________ Regards Howard (in reply to ZX1100F1) Post #: 3
