Default focus rs engine managmentlight problem.

my engine managment light was on origionaly when i bought my focus rs because of the decat system, i plugged a mil eliminator which i bought from ggr in line with the lambner sensor to stop the engin man light coming on. i disconnected the battery, left for half an hour plugged in the mil eliminator reconnected and the light ment out. great! but after halfhour driving it came back on??

do i need do have a diagnostic or will it go on its own??/

it will never go off in theory. The ECU will always do a system check to ensure everything is as it should be. If there is a fault then the light will come straight back on again.......with the fault being the decat system.

Don't know how the GGR thing works but from the diagnostics work I do for a major automotive firm I'd say this shouldn't work.
