5th time same sensor being triggered....what's up?
So for some reason my o2 keeps going off for Bank 2 Sensor 2 (High voltage). That's in the front header, I didn't touch it in any way. I only replaced the y-pipe and cat. I was expecting a code for maybe the ones in the y-pipe or somewhere in the back not in the header...anyway i replaced that sensor which was blue with a black 3 wire OEM plug. It's not the same length but it's the same o2. I still keep getting that code. I reset it, drive about 80-100 miles and it comes back, but it's not always 80-100 i drove about 3-400 before it triggered again today. What's up with that?

I once had the same problem after installing my Y-pipe. I replaced it w/ an OEM O2 sensor and the code returned about a month later. I reset it thinking it was just a glitch cause it was almost brand new. After about two monthes the same code returned. I ended up taking a gamble and going with a Denso Sensor, haven't had any problems since. Just wondering what brand sensor did you use?

hey guys.
the administrator wont let me start a new thread so this question is off topic.
the imobilizer in my 99 maxima is cutting power to the fuel pump so i was wondering if i could hot wire the fuel pump to toggle switch on the dash that is if the fuel pump recieves a constant 12 volts. also does the imobilizer effect anything else.
sorry again for the location of my post.

^I think you HAVE to get your ecu and keys reprogrammed. I believe there's no other way. But you can do that fuel pump thing when the immobilizer is fixed. Not to sure.
o2 is OEM Bosch.

Totally new sensor, it's just not the same color or length but it had the same 3 wires. I left the old o2 just in case...I think I'll stop by soon Freddy I'd like you to diagnose this bish!!!

It's possible you have replaced the wrong sensor on your 99.

i too, have been having issues where the sensor will go off in the same fashon as yours.
i havent replaced it at all, but it happend some time after the y-pipe replaced.
mabe it could be the brand? i havent replaced the actaull sensor, but when i do, i plan to go with denso - like noted above. anyone remember the site to buy the o2 sensors? i forget what it was called again - i bought a rear o2 sensor but never installed it, i havent got the recipt anymore.

I'm more then possitive it's not the cat since that's been replaced with a Cattman Fast Cat during the install of the y-pipe. The thing is the sensor that keeps reading bad is the one in the manifold...I haven't even messed with my manifolds so that's why I have no idea wtf is up.
Unless i'm an idiot and i changed the wrong sensor...which it turns out i did
