Did you reconfigure the gateway with all your installation options?

The gateway was pre coded for me matey. Is it usual to get faults after installing a new can?

Just clear the faults as removing/installing the gateway throws up tons of them.
If there's an issue(s) it/they should be reflagged on another scan.

As per bacillus post. If its been coded correctly then once all codes have been cleared that should be fine.

Cool thanks for the help guys I will clear the codes tomorrow is it best to go through each module individually to clear the codes or can I just clear all. Cheers

Just use the clear all DTC function, that should do it.
