Posted by uber_nny, Dec-13-06 08:26 AM
ok i faild going throug inspection.oxygen sensor heater status = not ready.code present p0140.

i have a brand new sensor im gonna put in but where do i run the wiring harness for it?

also, will a hollowed out CAT cause the o2 sensor to give that readout? or is it just a bad sensor?

Is that thing hollow?

To the OP, I would recommend just getting a cheap universal converter, possibly locally or www.summitracing.com carries universal Catco converters, putting that on and when inspection is done, putting your hollow one back in if you really wanted to...
