if its the pre cat o2 sensor then all you have to do is reset the ecu and it will go off, the one actually on the cat is a diffrerent story

got my check engine light on read at knects and the said it was the O2 sensor. my car only has 44k on it can this be? and how much to replace? i only have a powertrain warrenty and i assumed it was under that but the dude at the dealer said its part of the emissions. and it would cost 250 for the front one or if it was the back it would be 350.
 

|Buy the sensors at AutoZone $ 69.00 each and rent the O2Sensor tools for free..You dealer is a As$Wipe..

so it finally came back on today. had it checked.  and the dude said either LEAN 1  or LEAN BANK 1. and its the front o2 sensor. but he said the computer they have arent as good as the ones they have at the machanics. so if any one knows what that means.

i havn''t even heard of those things...yeah if you have been going to the shops and paying for them i think its better to just replace the o2 sensors yourself and really trying to fix the problem than going to those bull shops that doesnt really help..
