for the last couple weeks, my engine light been going on. it's pretty random too. some nights it'll go on while other nights it'll be fine.

i recently changed my spark plug seals, yesterday actually.

while i was driving back on the freeway, just hitting 70-75 the engine light came on for the last 5 or so minutes of my ride. no idea why. just would like a bit of opinion. k thnx. live in the bay too if anyone wnats to help a brotha and take a look.

 

Check you're code on the ECU. Lift up the carpet on the passenger side to find a blinking light. Then look in a manual or online to see what the code is.

 

Here is a thread to help you out.

say the engine light doesn't go on for awhile, will it blink with the problem otherwise or onlyw hen the engine light goes on?

is it the red flashing light? or do i have to take the cover off and pull the whole ecu out to find a different light?

Yes its the red flashing light. just count the flashes.

 

is there any different speeds of them or just constant like 4 or 1 one long and 5 short or something?

 

ps, only one oxygen sensor for our car? hmm i feel like my street milage has been bad too

 

alright, just went out for a 20 minute drive; street and freeway hoping my light would come on so i could check the ecu. yet again, the light decided not to go on... like it does randomly. will come on sometimes while other times it'll stay off for a few days. i'm thinking it's the oxygen sensor. diagnose my problem. PLEASE!!!

up!

 

How many flashes is the little red light flashing??? If it blinks only once yes it's an 02 sensor. Gotta count the flashes dude

 

so i finallly caught my engine light. there was one blink.. then like 2-3 second pause of no blinks.. then another... and repeat. so i'm guessing that is just code 1 since there were no constant blinks. thats my oxygen sensor then?

 

up, just need an answer asap. thanks

 

Yes sir you need a new o2 sensor.

Is that just a generic 02 sensor?
