Default Primary Heated Oxygen Circuit

Well, after work one day I was cruising along about 55mph or so, and all of a sudden my CEL came on. I've been really busy, but I searched and learned to check the code and all of that. When I pulled the code, it blinked 1 time, and from the chart located http://hondaprelude.to/article....html

at the site, it means Primary Heated Oxygen Circuit, or the ECM is the culprit. My question is, what are these things? I searched for each, and all I found was someone looking for an ECM. Anyone know what it is and if I should attempt to fix it myself or what? Any help in the right direction will be greatly appreciated.

Edit: This is on a 97 SS

Your primary O2 sensor is probably going bad (the heater circuit of it). If the CEL persists, replace the sensor.

Thanks, I'll be replacing it within the week and I'll let you know if it worked.

usually code 1 is for the o2 sensor itself, and 41 is for the heater circuit. If you want a short term fix, take it out and spray it with carb cleaner. It'll buy you some time.
