Well first off it has headers and no cats, has the code tuned out for that though. But I'm getting another code for o2's responding too slowly. I can't afford to do all of this work right now and I need the car to get to work.

No, any code that triggers the SES light will fail when it gets hooked up for emissions testing. There are ways around it, but good luck finding an inspector who will risk it for somebody they don't know. I know I won't. Just like anything else, it's all in who you know.

True statement.. Good Luck guys..
A few years back it wasn't a (AS) of big deal to pass a car like you guys, but now with the new emissions testing its alot harder.

I'm glad i live out of any big cities. Don't have to worry about it when i start working on mods. All i need is insurance, tires and working lights. Good luck though, wonder if you can go out of the county lines and get it done?

Ya and if they are coming towards you just shine a mirror to blind them so they can't see the date on your expired inspection sticker.

To help get rid of the p0704


Here are some pics to help fix the problem. I just did it to my car and the code has not reappeared! Just passed inspection

I just did it and the code is gone! I have posted some pictures of the switch before and after adjustment.

Like members have mentioned:

Step one: You simply remove the switch (white) from its connection as pointed out in the pictures.

Step two: Once you have done this twist the switch into position. Then you re-connect it to its connection and you are done. Clear the code and it should go away for good.
