1995 z28 code 41 after header installation

I have a 95 z28 6speed and i installed headers long tubes pacesetters couple of days ago and i started to get code 41 on my car i know this code is related to the ICM or cam sensor or open circuit
When i put theaders i broke the temp gage sensor and i didnt put one in yet and i also took off the o2 sensors due to reach till i extend them.
One more thing there was a wire between the ground and the old exhaust manifold i didnt connect. Could that be the reason to get open circuit code?
Thanks

This links to another forum, but there are factory manual snapshots for your code(and all the others too....)

I doubt it. Follow the troubleshooting chart on 41_2. That should help out, however if the problem is intermittent, that could be more of a challenge.

Re: 1995 z28 code 41 after header installation

the thing is that the code comes out after about 10-15 min i tried to turn the car of and turn it the code went away for about the same time. i tested the voltage on it was fine it was 4.8V so the ICM is fine
it is confusing me and now i started to get a lifter knocking sound some times depends on the cars mode
all that killed my happiness after the headers
