o2 sensor check engine light.

[ashton]

So my car was throwing a check engine light code so I put a new o2 sensor in it and it still is throwing the code. Any ideas what is wrong?

Thanks,

Ashton.

Did you reset the code?

[ashton]

Did you reset the code?

No. Can you teto me how to? Please.

I believe there is a special tool you can use to do it, if you don't have one there is probably another method available to do it as well.

Failing that, Unhooking the battery for several minutes should do it.

Do you have any large holes in your intake boot?

Nahh I can't find any leaks.

Are you sure? ;)

What about the whole on the side of my cold air intake? Should I plug it?

[ashton]

Are you sure? ;)

Which strongly suggests that there are instake leaks, which would also cause a Lambda (2 senosr) fault.

Where is the Lambda sensor located?

I can't find any intake leaks at all. Its making me mad.... :/
