  • code 420

    got my car scanned today and i had the usual 480/481 for the cooling fans (fan switch) but also had 420. something about the catalyst emitions in bank 1...the o2 sensor before the cat i think? does this just mean i need to replace the o2 sensor?

            I know I've sure had a code 420 in my car more than once. Got pretty smoggy in my car, too. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

                Yea, that's the other one I get alot too. I just clear and go on, I know my O2 sensors are fine. James or anybody else, any idea what actually triggers that code though

                  pcm sees something other than it expects to see from post-cat O2 sensor.
                  i would rather see the code because of some good headies (or even some beasters) but i don't think that's what the engineers had in mind...

                  hey james (12sec), do you have your latest emissions results from your last inspection, or do you guys do emissions testing there?
