thats what i thought too. so i replaced the oxygen sensor. i was wondering if there was a leak right after the o2 would it cause the sensor to go on and off like i am experiencing.

Incorrectly wired, or some wierd issue.

Is the ECU chipped?

Does the car stumble at a highway cruise?

Anything else you can think of?

I have a diagram in my head, and my mspaint skills suck. If you start describing the system as you have it configured I can be of help.

PS - DIY rule of thumb? If YOU wired the sensor according to vowel shifting surrender monkey specifications and then you get a code for said sensor, it's probably not the sensor that's bad.
