Default Had a question about wave lengths in 02 sims compared to 02 sensor.

Well I have ran into a problem.. I am throwing P0420 and nothing seems to tame the beast. So I was wondering seeing how this code is caused by the #2 sensor relaying the same(or close too) as the #1 sensor meaning the cat is FUBAR.. So Do the 02 sims put out a steady stream to fool the PCM that the cat is in working order? Solving my issues and passing smog? Or would it spit out the same readings as if it where before the cat? I ordered sims from ls1speed a while back for my rear 02's but they must have broke because I started throwing codes.. I had the rear 02's deleted (apperantly the shop I paid to delete them didnt do there job) So I ditched them. So does anyone have any input?

Talk to the shop that supposedly shut off the codes?

I did some research one time about how to make these.

From what I remember it is a square wave that minics the fronts (flips a couple of times a second to once every couple of seconds) and has a lower voltage.

I see.. I need to get live readings from the sims and front 02's to see if they are emitting the same or different wave forms in order to ensure its not a PCM problem.
