ECU-lambda sond

Post by Frantic » Wed Aug 13, 2008 1:55 pm

Is there a way to fool the ECU?
I guess the lambda sensor is on it's way out and don't have the time to
replace it on short term
On a temporary basis, I want to disconnect the signalcable and fool
the ECU by thinking it's stil there, without going into 'emergency loop'.
Is it possible?

no doubt it. It will just go into a loop with no sensor like a b18ftm
