CEL with skip shift eliminator?

Has anyone experienced this with the 6th Gens? I installed one this weekend and the CEL came on after a few miles. The one I have was just a wire that looped back around. I thought these typically had a resistor or something in there?

No issues for me. There are a few different versions depending on the car model. Mine looked something like this:

There should be a resistor in there. If yours does not, you got a bad part or were scammed.

Looking at the one in the picture it looks like there is a resistor or something within the heat shrink besides just wire.

You probably got a bad batch's skip shift. Who did you buy it from?

I had gotten a skip shift eliminator from a known vendor here in 2016 who's first batch came with the incorrect resistors due to mislabeling from the resistors manufacturer if i remember correctly, and those were throwing CELs left and right, but they did the right thing and sent us all new ones free of charge with the correct resistors. No CEL since.

Maybe that's what you have, an incorrect resistor.

I think this was a batch issue. I got a Muzzy's from a vendor I've bought at least 6 from with no issues for my ZL1 and got a CEL on the way in this morning (put it in last night). Will pop it out when I get home and let them know.
