I'm planning on buying an o2 sensor simulator. I've seen them for $20.00 bucks and up. I don't want to spend money on junk, anyone know of one that actually works to replace sensor 1 bank 1.

You can't replace bank 1 sensor 1, you MUST have a real sensor there.

Do you have the wires modified at all? Have you checked for frays or damage from the sensor to the ECU?

Are they modified though? Lengthened? Different gauge wire?

it's lenghtened using the wires that came with the pacesetter kit.

Thats why, everybody who lengthens the wires ends up getting slow response codes.

I don't know the fix. Eric may be able to give some more insight.

make sure you DONT modify the sensor wires....... they have a specific resistance value. When lengthening the wires ONLY lengthen the harness wires (car side of the plug) not the sensor side.

ALSO..... adding a A/F Gauge will also cause problems, and possible slow responce codes......

and SHIFTEDs being a post whore tonight
