So I have heard that a 1 megaohm 1/4 watt resistor can be used to stop the CEL from coming on if in stalled on the rear 02 sensor of my 95 Talon ESi. Does anyone know which wire to put it on? I have heard the blck one, and the grey one, but I don't know which one is correct. Does anyone have any other ideas? Thanks.

I recall reading a document on line about eliminating the back o2 sensor?

I checked wasn;t on VFAQ but surely a search in this archive here would give it up

hope this helps

DOH
Just read your title again :rolleyes:
So you are putting on a test pipe and removing the cat so then you get a CEL.....
Thought you had a faulty O2...
Sorry about that...

OK another that could help

if it is 4 wire two are for the heater and two for signal. Set the ignition on and see if any two have power.those are the heaters'

I think there should be two grounds as well.

kind of messed up
also Mike hamilton's site can help

google.com

I'm not sure if the procedure would be the same for an ESi or not, but it's worth a shot. smile
