I was looking at a fellow honda-tech member's homepage and came across the one of his installations. I noticed that he did the resistor trick for the O2 sensor on his cat on his F22 motor. Since I have a F23 motor, the wires should be different and maybe the voltage on the O2 sensors will be different. That would mean that I will have to use a different voltage resistor. I am wondering if any 6th gen Accords have done this mod and what resistors and wires did you use?

 

i have the diagram of which wire is which i can get the voltage also, i'll go to the shop and check tonight.

 

Thanks for your help. Did you do this mod to your car?

I don't know if it'll work, but the O2 sensor used in the Accords is the same for all of them I believe. As far as I know anyway . If you're just trying to fool the ECU, which is what I'm guessing to bypass the OBDII issues.......you can always make a square wave generator with a 555 timer (very simple), or you can just use a variable resistor until you get it to work. I'd say somewhere in the 10k pot range would be more than capable. I forget how the voltage on the O2 sensor coresponds with the a/f ratio, but I think it's lower = leaner....so that'd work, but if it's the other way, then this trick won't work.

Link us to the write-up, por favor.

 

I remember seeing a "how-to" on a member's personal website. I also bought all the parts listed.. but I couldn't exactly figure it out. ...

If anyone has an easy to follow "how-to" on it.. I'd be much abliged.

 

Here is the site:

Yeah, that's the one I had trouble figuring out. I bought all the part #'s and everything, but they don't look the same as in the picture. Has anyone done this successfully that can clarify ??

Bump for a good topic concerning all OBD-2 cars with a test pipe and check engine light.

 

insert plug!
you can buy a warrentied o2 simulator .. pretty cheap.. one thats tested and sure to work! Not fry anything

What wires does it tap into?

 

plug it into your harness, super simple and very easy! cant go wrong with a lifetime warrenty

 

There is a shop here in Knoxville that sells the boxes as well and they work great cause that is what a lot of people here in knoxville use on their cars&gt; I can get a phone number if you want it.
