under your dash to the left there is a system connector, short pin 1 to ground and turn the key to on, your enginge light should flash error code 1 - 1 to signify error code 11

either that or take it to your mechanic who should have a MUT-II device that will tell him the error codes

when you ground pin 1 for the O2 sensor and it flashes error code 11, what does that tell you? i was looking at the disgnosis box thing the other day and i couldnt make any sense of it....if it flashes when you ground a particular pin, what does that mean?
i was looking into this too cos i think my mechanic took out my O2 sensor when he installed my extractors and flex pipe....and i dont think he welded it back into the new flex pipe.....so im running an open loop...running rich and getting bad economy

welded it???? sh*t i hope not cause its supposed to SCREW IN!
i would imagine that the O2 sensor has been cooked if he WELDED it in, and if he did i wouldn't be going there.

heheheh ok sorry...i meant to say that im not sure if he put the O2 sensor back in cos ive been under the car lots of times but i havent seen the O2 sensor in the flex pipe....but i could be wrong i guess....it might be in the top side of the pipe....
