Yeap after several months of running my machine 95 carina E 4AFE engine with my check engine light on. I decided to change my oxygen sensor after unsuccessful attempts on convincing my kazeen to learn I had to force him to change it anyway. d car does nt give me any issue watsoeva previous n even after d change apart frm slightly comsuming more fuel.

Nw d issue is dt after changing d oxygen sensor yesterday d CEL is yet to go off after removing my battery head overnite to enable ECU to reset. I read online dt it takes abt 30 to 40 ECU cycle or one month b4 d light goes off.

What do u guys tink d car is 95 n may nt b scan compliant.
if it is an oxygen sensor issue will d new sensor b workin even with d CEL on

Bros, did you scan the car first before dashing it throwing an Oxygen sensor?

Nope but my research reveals dt oxygen sensor is d usual culprit wen carina E CEL comes on. D car is pre 96 and may nt be scan compliant

your Carina is OBD I compliant .

there are other sensors in that car and 02 sensor can not be the only reason for cel light

Come for a Free scan ogawisdom. You have a diagnostic port in your engine bay that can be used to scan your vehicle.

Sorry but scanning the car for other codes may be necessary here. Please how much did you buy the oxygen sensor and was it new or tokumbo?

TOTAL ERROR!...AINT TRUE........
SCAN FIRST TO KNOW the cause of the check engine...2ndly most cars have between 2 to 4 oxygen/af sensors..........so only a scan will tell u the particular one that is bad

Where this great man go hide?
Welcome back bro... Car talk missed you

From what I have read online with many sources, Air fuel ratio sensor are improved version of oxygen sensors. It is latest in the technology and has been around for almost 10years. It saves more gas than oxygen sensors and it is wide band against oxygen sensor which is narrow band. You can actually use AFR sensor of the same part number in place of oxygen sensor. Again most scanning tools read AFR as oxygen sensors

I am in Abia state. you can call me 08030938491. Though I won't scan for free but at a very subsidized price .
