Troubleshooting

Check Engine Light (CEL) remains on after installation

Verify the sensor is correctly seated and tightened. Ensure the electrical connector is clean and securely plugged in. Re-scan for error codes to see if new codes have appeared or if the old ones have cleared. Professional diagnostics may be needed to check wiring integrity or other related components.

Poor engine performance or reduced fuel economy persists

Confirm the correct sensor part number was installed for your vehicle. Ensure there are no other exhaust system leaks or issues that could affect sensor readings or engine performance. A professional diagnostic scan is recommended to rule out other potential problems.

Sensor connector does not fit securely

Inspect both the sensor connector and the vehicle's wiring harness connector for any damage or debris. Ensure you are using the correct replacement part for your specific vehicle model and year. Contact support if the connector appears to be damaged or incompatible.
