I'm kinda thinking the same thing. I had a dealer order me one and I'm going to pick it up next week. It did trigger the check engine light.
Funny thing about this. The closest dealership to me is about 100 miles so just for curiosity sake I took it to a local mechanic who hooked it up to the machine. The read out did say the same thing.
However, when he reconnected the battery, the light went out. I didn't have the problem again until yesterday when the light came back on.
Anyway, I gonna put the part in and see if takes care of my problem.
