Disconnect your rear 02 sensor and plug the sim into the wire harness. Tuck it up out of the way. You can either leave the rear 02 sensor in and tie the wire out of the way or pull it out and plug the hole.

Wouldn't hurt. I know on my car there is a heat shield around the rear 02 wire to shield it from the exhaust. I think you can just just tuck it up into there.

Nice!


i will order the sim as soon as i can.
i have to do a 1500km trip this weekend, is it dangerous for a long ride to run with that code?

i mean is it only a code or i run too rich for real because that the PCM is adjusting ? :?

The rear 02 has no affect on your fueling it is only there to gauge the performance of the cat.
