Exclamation Replaced 02 Sensors still throwing code

I have a 1998 C1500 Silverado, I just spent a pretty good amount of money to have my truck tuned up, catalytic converters replaced, and changed spark plugs. After all of this it was throwing an 02 Sensor code. I replaced all four, up flow and down flow and it is still throwing a code. I reset my battery and drove it around and the engine light went off for a while but then it eventually came back on. What could be the problem? I am stumped and I have been running around with my tags out because I cant get it inspected.

Admissions Code 02 BANK 2 or Catalytic Converter, which has me stumped because I had both my converters replaced and I replaced all the sensors.

What is the actual code? There’s at least 8 codes for O2 sensors that I can think of off the top of my head and the direction diagnosis needs to go depends on the code.

If it’s bank 2 then it’s going to be P043x with “x” being the last digit of the code.

Check the wiring and the plug on the cable going to the 02 sensors. Look for some kind of damage.
