13 adn 89 are sudgesing that both the O2 sensors are not connected/open circuit. Have the cats been off or the gearbox disturbed?

31 is raised if the engine is not running.

The gearbox has not been disturbed but after suffering two Kwik-Fit cats on the passender side for 6 months, I found a used original vauxhall cat from a Police Omega which was being broken. While I was at it I swapped my pattern exhaust system for the Police Omega's too. Wow - what a difference! The car is quieter and smoother. I would recommend anyone to buy an original vauxhall second hand exhaust and cat rather than buy new pattern parts. My Kwik-Fit cat cost £200 whereas the far superior second hand one cost me £60 and the rest of the exhaust £45

So the only part of my system which is still original is the driver's side cat. Could the 02 sensor on the driver's side need replacing? I have already replaced the 02 sensor on the passender side.
