Hi , there !!
I just had a new header and cat installed on my ITR about 2days ago.
Just after finishing the installation, Engine check light was on.
Actually, when the guy, who fitted the header and cat for me, removed the O2 sensor,which consists of 4different wires being put in the plastic socket, in order to put the new cat and header, all of sudden the wires were taken apart from where they were supposed to be.
The guy couldn't remember the sequence where the wires were at the first place. So what he did was tracking the sequence of wires in the top part, being plugged in the ECU. But he failed to put them back in right position. And then he tried a few possibility to find out the right sequence.
Finally, the engine check light was gone and never came on again. It seems alright now.
But I just think that the reason why the engine check light was gone could be either because he put them back in the right position or because the O2 sensor is being broken and malfunctioning.
Can anyone tell me what will happen, if the O2 sensor is broken or malfunctioning?? Does it make white exhaust gas out of the muffler?? and dose the engine check light stay on, even if the O2 sensor is broken??
My car was making the white exhaust gas, when the engine check light was on.
Looking forward to hearing from you guys!!
