cat converter light????

[RickGT]

ive recently had a new exhaust fitted and now the cat light is constantly on, how do i fix this, does it do anything to the performance?

[Caveman]

Cat light?

Its probably the O2 sensor which is suppose to plug into the cat.

[RickGT]

yea there was a wire goin into it b4, thought its a temp sensor, oxy sensor is off manifold

[AceSniper]

yea its a temp sensor, most places spot weld the end of the sensor to the exhust pipe... I think it needs to be earthed

[RickGT]

sweet thanks

[Bling]

take the bulb out

if it is AE 101 , jus pull the carpet on the driver side just below the stereo, you will find wire with socket going thru body to outside, disconnect that...

Judging by his sig, which says "α ε 8 2 Τ о у о т а Со я о І І а ƒ х - Ġ т Τ ω ϊ η с а м ", along with the pic of an FX-GT and a 16v 4AGE, as well as a 16v 4AGE as his avatar, I don't think he has an AE101. Just a hunch

[RickGT]

is the wire found in the same place as the ae101's???

[soopachargen]

when i had my exhaust done on my old ae82 they just cut the sensor off and tucked the wire over the exhaust. My idle pulsed a bit for about a week but then it was sweet. a couple of months later when i had the carpet out i just unplugged the cat wire and i now use it as a weapon against my little brother.
i only ever had the cat light on when it was clogged up before being replaced.

[RickGT]

yea theve obviously just choped it righ off, where bouts do i find this under the carpet???

[fatgtr]

just ground the wire to the frame of the car.

[RickGT]

yea but i have to find it first

[RickGT]

yea so i had a look under the carpet an couldnt find anything! anybody got any clues to where it is?
