Guys,
Just replaced the front pipe/cat and with the old one blowing, the only code I had flash up was for the cam sensor.
Fitted the new pipe, swapped the O2 sensor over, plugged it in and now the EML won't go out and I get codes 0130 and 0135 flash out as well as 0340 for the cam sensor.
I find it hard to accept that the sensor was working but now isnt. Would both the heater and O2 element fail at the same time or could this be an open circuit instead? Is there a way to check the O2 sensor?
I had a two wire sensor on my old Rover and to check it was working, I just plugged a multimeter on to the two wires and saw the reading on the meter flip high then low. Which two wires heat the sensor and which two give the O2 reading?
Also, another thought, do error codes need removing? This wasn't/isn't an issue with the cam sensor as sometimes the car started with the EML light stay out and when I checked for codes to flash out, I didn't get one. It wasn't until the EML light came on that I would then, on the next start, get the code to flash out so I wondered if certain codes need clearing?
Phew, sorry for the length of post!
Thanks for any replies guys!
