the battery shop got PE ECU reader? what if didn't start the car when the O2 sensor removed? remove O2 sensor and connect back without crank start the car?

battery shop punya mechanic drive my car go his fren shop to erase d code...thats y kena chop money lo...
for ur o2sensor ques...im not sure of d answer

Then the engine light won't come on. The o2sensor detects fuel & gas ratio in exhaust gas. When the o2sensor is unplugged & the engine is started, the sensor does not detect any fuel in the air around the engine bay, thus triggering the ECU warning code/engine light.

ic... better way to avoid this is don't crank start the car until the O2 sensor is connected back... agree with my assumption?

Can say so. But if u pasang extractor, u need to extend the o2sensor cable. How are u gonna extend it if ur car is still in the exhaust shop?

my advice for ppl that dun wan to go through d hassle...go for other brand of extractor whereby d sensor slot is at d top position...

Hotbits also at top wat.

cannot just simply sambung the wire with cut-and-sambung? or that wire is special wire?

not as top as d stock la...haha
slightly near d middle but still not tat far

just cut n sambung...it is just normal wire...
4 connections - 1 positive 1 negative 2 for analog reading for d ecu chip...

since it is normal wire... just cut and sambung with 4 different wire will do what...

Yea.. Can DIY at ur own will.. but to do that u need to be at home rite? So u need to drive ur car out back home first. Error code sure come out

sambung straight away at exhaust shop lor... dont the boss not let u diy or ask them diy for u (less than 5 minutes job) mah....

then nex time u knw lo...before go change...prepare wire n instruments for diy

Exhaust shops usually dont have the equipment to sambung for u ma. Do u trust ur car's o2sensor & ECU in the hands of an exhaust mechanic? I know I dont.

Or else u can also extend the wire at home first before u drive ur car to the exhaust shop...

if morning i still can attend, too late i cant go liao.
have to go seremban for wedding dinner.

meaning to say go outside install extractor will have this issue

actually where the wire connected to? 1 end is to extractor, another end to? is service center got sell long wire?

i tink not all gua cz jz now at exhaust shop...i saw a 4-2-1 extractor d socket plug is on d top which is same as d stock extractor...some dude at d shop install that at d same time wif me...driving persona also...

Not exactly lah. Only certain extractor which is designed in such a way..

The other end to ur ECU lo. Service center no sell. have to extend urself.

Location of o2sensor placing is important.. Bukan cincai put wan.. Cap ayam ones usually located either at the same place as stock, or at the bottom before the flexipipe. Don't go for the latter if u ever decide to go for cap ayam extractor, cos when water splashes at the o2sensor it wouldn't work and ur throttle will become unresponsive (as in totally no response when u step on the pedal).

guys shld i reset my ecu?
since the car is not driven by me perviously , now full tank can go 350km++ , i feel it can do 400km , i thinking to give a shot by reset ecu n c how it goes
