O2 Sensor Simulator


Recommended Posts

Posted

Good evening, i'm Italian Boy and my English is very poor, sorry.

 

It's possible bypassing or simulating an O2 sensor ?

 

P.S. In Italy the Thecnique of American Cars isn't know and the person they are useful.

Yes you can use an o2 simulator. If you bypass it the check engine light will come on.

I'm sure someone makes them for your engine. I cleared the guts out of the catalytic converter on an '02 Firebird once, after which the downstream O2 sensor started throwing a code. I installed an O2 sensor and it cleared the check engine light. Very handy.

Because i have a gpl system and they generated error at 2O sensor.

 

In Italy the fuel price is 1,6 € Liter and the american truck mounting a gpl system

I am looking for some o2 sensor simulators or eliminators myself. I put headers on and a custom side exit exhaust. The headers had a place for the front sensors but there is no place for the rears and I don't want to attempt drilling in my custom exhaust possibly destroying it or causing a leak. I can not find them on internet searches for a Silverado/GM/Chevrolet. I have a 2002 model and right now the rear sensors are unplugged from the harness mounted on the frame and stored in my toolbox.

 

Anybody have any solutions for what I want to purchase?

I have tried most or a lot of the websites that pop up under search terms but have not found any simple good results that will fit or claim to fit a Silverado. Maybe I can't get what I am looking for but have found many online posts refering to "dummy o2 sensors", "o2 sensor sims", "o2 sensor simulators", etc.

 

I was hoping someone had found a solution already that was in use currently.

    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
    • New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended? 
    • So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
