Default cel 2 on a obd0?? 2nd o2 sensor ? WTF

running a b16 with a pw0.
and im getting a cel which i believe is a 2.
short flashes,...at first i was thinking 20 due to it being obd0(Eletrical load detector) and wanting another o2 sensor?

well i would like any info that will help me fix the CEL.


thanks alot!

OBD0 B16's require 2 lambda's. Connecting them together is NOT recommended. Some people claim it works though. You could use Bre and run a custom chip with 1 lambda.

From Hondata's tech page :
Early VTEC engines use two oxygen sensors arranged to read one cylinder pair per oxygen sensor. The mixture for each cylinder pair is tuned separately. It is important not to wire the sensors around the wrong way, otherwise one cylinder pair will run lean, and the other pair rich. It is also important not to wire one oxygen sensor into both sensor inputs, otherwise the engine will run either very lean or very rich.

Almost at the bottom under the head "Pre-OBD I Engines"

Either get your ecu modified or get a second o2 sensor...
