Check your "ENG SEN" fuse to make sure it's not blown. If it is look for a burnt/accing 02 sensor wire on the header somewhere.

Did you check the fuse? The MAF, 02, skip shift sol, reverse lockout sol are all on that circuit. www.gearchatter.com/viewtopic8916.php

mine did the exact same thing......but it went deeper then the fuse

check your o2 wires under your car now, make sure there not melted or anything other wire for that matter....it will throw a short to the pcm....

my o2 wires melted and blew out the fuse
