okay, this is the girlfriend's car....has idiot light for O2 Sensor.....checked online and all i saw was that the Mazda people want you to shell out $$$ for resetting and checking the ECU error codes...is this a key ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON thing (as in the Jeep) a trick wire in the ECU (like a acura integra) or what? I wanna do this myself, and I don't really would like to buy a tester, as I am currently looking for a VW 1218 to buy, as it will be more useful to me....any ideas?
also need to know info for same situation in my mom's 95 XJ6 |

i meant CEL....sorry for the confusion....it came on because of the O2 Sensor problem or something ( so her dad says) .....so i'm gonna pull the batt cables and HOPE TO THE LORD the radio doesnt have a code to enter....the jag is before Ford owned them, and i figured it WAS OBD-I so I coudl do the off-on-off trick, but no beans...there is a different method and i'm wondering what that is.......the reason why *I* am pretty sure it was teh O2 sensor is bc the gf's dad took the car in to have it scanned and that's what came up, and after replacement and a short time later, light came on again.....so I wanna see if it's just a temporary thing or if the sensor really is dead....he didnt even know O2 sensors had warranties.....
