i know this is a stupid question. but if there is no o2 sensor "cut off" would it effect anything, my car was working ok yesturday but when i try to start it this moring it would not start and getting no code and some how the 02 sensor is ***.

Well, your O2 sensor won't even be noticed until it's hot enough to sense AFR changes. So, it won't have any bearing on whether your car starts or not.

What leads you to believe it's fubar'd?

well i just think that might be the prob because it started fine yesturday but when i try to start it again it would not start and i just found out the o2 sensor was cut,
and there is spark and fuel but can't get it to start, and im not getting anycode either. it cranks but wont start then my battary died

Reconnect your O2 sensor by splicing.

Tek, i disagree, i was running no O2 sensor for awhile, as soon as i started the car, it threw a CEL.

Before I turned mine off in Uberdata it threw a cel but never effected startup

Not sure what you're disagreeing with here..

You can throw CEL's all day long for no O2, but it still won't effect startup.

yeah im supposed to have 2 o2 sensors in my accord, i have neither hooked up or installed... rarely do i ever get a cel. An o2 cel should never prevent you from starting
