Wondering what you did to eliminate the Engine code 71 MIL light? I'm thinking of adding a resistor to the EG sensor so it feeds the correct voltage to the ECU. What ya think of that idea?

So far so good, I bought a 4.7K ohm 1/2 watt resistor at Radio Shack(pack of 5 for .99) bent the wires on it and stuck it in the EG probe wiring harness connector. I've driven the car 4 times since then on the highway and NO check engine light! Usually comes on after two drive cycles. I'll need to make a more waterproof install later. The Alldata tech manual shows the probe is a varible resistor and when heated to approx 350deg reads around 2-4k ohms, lower temps raise the ohm value.
This idea may work for other JDM engines with the engine code 71 fault too! |
