Getting a code checked Had the SES light pop on this morning. Does about any auto parts store check it for free? Car ran fine, but I might try to run somewhere after work to get it checked out.

Went to advanced and i was P0135. 02 (Bank 1 Sensor 1). Got it cleared and it hasn't come back on yet. The car has sat since the first weekend in November so hoping it was just becauce of the gas maybe?

I got the same code when I started running 93 in the car (like it should be, but the person I bought the car off ran 87 often). It would come on every other months, did this maybe 3 times. Went away for a long time, then got a code, got it checked and the O2's needed replacing.

Have the codes tuned out and deleted from the ECM, that way the SES light won't comes on. You should still pass OBDII inspection.

Since the heater using a voltage sense to the ECM it's going to throw those codes.

Have them tuned out before attempting state inspection! Just a friendly reminder!

I've lived in 3 different counties the past couple of years and none have required inspection so I should be good until they mandate something, and hopefully I'll have a tune by then!
