Ok guys this has gotten way redicilous now...the car has thrown a code 61 for quite sometime...so a few weeks back i replaced both o2 sensors...cleared up the code for a bit...3-4weeks....and now its coming back...im wondering if it could be a faulty o2 sensor...but it ran great for that 3-4weeks...and im gettin about 35mpg...95% highway driving about 60miles/day...

car has the basic...I/H/ and stock exh....if i reset the ecu...itll run fine for a day or 2 then back to limp mode....when i got the 2 new sensors i got the bosch 35711...i think they are universal o2's....made the harness to connect to the stock plugs etc...any ideas what would be causin the trip up causing the cel61?

thanks,
rob

did you follow the trouble shootin guide in the helms?...checkin your o2 resitance etc...

i have gone thru the entire checklist and it still kicks a cel...so im friggin stumped...

 

Try a New o2 sensor. i had the same problem and could not figure it out. the o2 sensor was working intermittently.

ya autozone is gonna hate me...i think i visit there on a weekly basis for waruntee repairs...gotta love those $149 lifetime axles...gone thru a few of those...and now gonna get another o2 sensor wooohooo!

 

can you help a bro out and list the helms check list of things to do?

THANKS!!!!

 

are you getting code "1" or "41" also? or just "61"?

I have a honda manual in front of me and there really isn't any testing other than ecm reset and if the cel comes back then you have a faulty o2. the only other thing mentioned is to check the connector at the o2 pigtail.

unless you have "1" or "41" there really isn't any testing per honda.

 

ya it only throws a code 61...its gone 4 days w/o kickin it again...so who knows

 

Mine is throwing a code 61 only as well....

 

I been swappin out axels from lappens for like 2 years now. They hate me for bringin in mangled parts. every 3 months a new set of axels

 

hasnt kicked a cel...but im pretty sure the o2 sensor is dead....car nows is gettin about 15mpg...vs its running well state of 30-35mpg
