recently changed my o2 sensors (c16, c8) still threw code 1 (primary o2 sensor)
cut the wires and switched them. still throwing the CEL, would switching the wires for the o2 sensors from the headers be the same as switching them on the ecu?

thanks

 

If you switch the wires on either side it will have the same effect.

Check the wires going from the O2 sensor plug to your ECU.

 

yeah thats what i'm talking about.. instead of depinning the ecu i just switched the o2 sensor wires on the harness (cut, resolder). I just wanted to know if it would be the same as switching the ecu wires.

 

yes it would

 

ok so why is it throwing code 1 still? they are both new sensors... gas mileage>me.

 

make sure you switched the wires correctly and didint cross any
