I tried and it didn't work I am not sure what to do now? My car has a cel on because of the o2 sensor, I replaced it, didn't help I used the anti-foulers as instructed, and I still have that damn cel.

Which O2 sensor do you have the CEL for the primary or the secondary?

This is only for people who want to replace the cat with a testpipe...not for people with bad O2 sensors. And this is only for the secondary O2 sensor.

Also, did you reset the ECU after doing this...you have to clear the CEL and see if it comes back...not expect it to go away on its own. Other then that...I really don't know. This should work on any car theoretically, since it is a mechanical fix.

With the 06+ models, it's very likely the ECU can't be fooled. Meaning the mechanical fix doesn't work. I was told this by the people at Berk, and confirmed by my own car.

The built-in fix on the Berk TP doesn't work for me, adding yet another anti-fouler doesn't work either for me. I may be stuck in an infinite loop of CEL, clear it, CEL, clear it.....etc.

It also seems to be next to impossible to find electrical O2 simulators for this car, and purely impossible to find one that actually works.

The ECG electrical 02 sim and the Comptech 02 "Terminator" (if you can find one) Both work on 00-05 cars
