Need quick response on P1280 code

Recently installed an AIS intake and 2 days later had an MBPR 4in. exhaust system added. Drove home from shop and it ran and sounded great. Next day on first 10mi. drive everything normal. On return trip I got an SES light. I have a scan gauge which showed a P1280 code (ICP out of range low). The truck is still starting and running normally. Could this have been a transient condition caused by the Mods.? I still have a little time and mileage on my 100K warranty so I tried to get into the Dealership, but they couldn't take me until Mon. morning. I couldn't resist clearing the code and light. (there was no data associated with it). After clearing truck is still running well and light did not return. I can duplicate the light by pulling the connector on the ICP which causes the engine to sputter and RPM can not be advanced from idle. Put connector back on, cleared light and it runs fine. Should I keep my Mon. appt. with the dealer or maybe drive it for awhile and get a back up ICP just in case?

TIA for any advice.

keep the appointment because they should be able to pull up old codes. it might be something other than what you just put on that caused the light to come on.

Good Dealership Report

Took the EX to Dealership today and they replaced the ICP senser today under warranty for the $100 deductable. I was expecting some flack about the new MBRP exhaust, but no problem.
