Default Troble shooters.. help me out here..

The 'Tech' forum is pretty slow so:

As soon as I start the car (after an ECU reset), within 3-4 seconds the CEL come on each and every time. I pulled the code off the ECU and it came back a '41'. Checked out the manual and it's telling me its the "O2 heater/circut", but doesnt give me any trouble shooting.

Has anybody encounterd this before? Bad O2 sensor? Wiring? Any help is apprieciated.

You might have the 2 O2 sensors plugged in backwards. Try changing them around.

sounds like wiring, or heater coil in o2 sensor has failed.

unheated o2 sensor will be ruined if left in the exhaust. it cant burn off carbon deposits that get stuck to the catalyst material inside the o2 sensor, making it slower to respond and die eventually.
