two minds greater then one

StephanT:
if it drops down low, the mixture is lean... see the little writeup i did in 2010:
 http://www.hexcode.co.za/techinfo/lambda

for the short circuit I would be looking at a wiring issue...  the other issue might be the sensor, or might be the mixture.. (i.e. fuel starvation or excess air ( to make it lean) - could be air leaks etc...

best,
Stephan

Hey TEEZY, did the O2 sensor Bosch 15727 solve your problems?

Teezy:
Hi Sparra,

yes I bought the Bosch universal O2 sensor, spliced it onto the cable with plug on it and it worked perfectly.

I did have a wiring fault between the socket and the ECU which is why I thought it was the sensor (sensor was dud though) - but a bit of jiggling of the cable removed the short and some cable ties to hold the cables in place and its all good again.

The sensor comes with a splice box - I used it but then removed it and used common insulated crimp lugs and some heat shrink - awesome!!

Cheers

Dave

Thanks for your response. I should check for an earthed wire before purchasing a sensor as the bike has only done 40,000 kilometres.
