This is highly unlikely with two and if one happens to fail, send it back but you'll still be able to solve your problem.

Update:
I disconnected the battery and took the OVP relay out this week. After bench testing in, taking the case off and poking around, I put it back in the car. NO MORE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. But it couldn't keep itself alive when cold.
For whatever reason, the next day it was just fine. Starts and idles cold, no lights, and strangely the exhaust sounds different (??)
The little LED still doesnt work, but since the CEL is out, I dont care.
