Where did you get the fix from?

Once you've installed it, is there any chance of posting instructions/pics of how it's done?

Get one from Jap Innovations,the MRT version they sell connects to the rear sensor direct and is much easier to fit and at £35 all in cheaper to.

Try this, if it's the same as my STI 03 Celfix from Scooby Sports.

My CEL fix cost me £0.26 Resistor and capacitor in line with sensor, works a treat, easy to fit. I can give instructions on how to wire that up, but not the one pictured, I'm afraid.

Hades "yours" is only for MY01&02 cars the new WRX03 needs only the resistor, believe me I saw it works in a friend's car without cats and CEL! (so far)

can you post the resistor/capacitor method then, this isn't in line meaning it'll mess up my Lambdalink is it?

RB5 - I posted the details on the resistor capacitor method a few months back here . Your lambdalink should be running off the front 02 sensor, this one effects the rear, so should be fine

Madgrip - sorry M8, don't know that one.

Phil, go back to the people who made the box ??? I'm sure they'll fax the wiring to you.

Can't answer those questions, but an xls file is usually a Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet.

Phil,

This the reverse instructions:

http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...hreadID=254143

Or try speaking to Pete at Scoobysport (you might find Pat there - he was when I had it fitted in the first place).

Cheers,
Gareth

How can these boys justify 50 odd quid when a 10p resistor does the same thing ?

Easy,

The resistor doesnt do the same..

The box has a microcontroller in it and can do more than just a cel fix..

Still does the same job in this case, though, David

In basic terms, the resistor "modifies" the output of the rear O2 sensor, to make it appear to read differently, i.e. within the tolerance the ECU is hoping to see. The capacitor (when used) sorts out any response time issues - the ECU expects the O2 sensor to respond at a certain rate. The box of tricks uses electronics to simulate the output of a corrrectly working sensor, so requires a lot more design and parts - therefore money.

I've got a Scoobysport CEL fix for my de-cat 02 Bugeye, I have been told that it "Reduces" but cannot eliminate CEL failures from removing the cats. I now drive around with the little light on but await the next re-map as EcuTEK can fix the problem completely
