code 43

[starchland]

bosch sucks buddy, ive used there crap before and so have many other people. If it was so good Honda would use it oem

[MyCord]

I've have the SAME exact problem. I threw code 41 and 43. I ordered this o2 sensor (LX/DX only) the EX/SE ver. is on there too somewhere. It's made by NTK which is an OEM company. It's on sale and if you search google you can find a 5$ off coupon. I put mine in yesterday and everything is fixed. DO NOT DO BOSCH

No honda would not use them, they build their cars in the US but everything on thoughs cars come from JAPAN even the seat belts all the way down to bolts. hence the reason they use japanese o2 sensors and not the bosch german designed, US made o2 sensor. Believe me go on wikipedia and look up Oxygen Sensor and see that every big advance in o2 sensors has came from bosch. Im not saying that if your looking for ease of install yeah spend 190 buks and plug it in and go, but if you dont have money the bosch works just as good as the expensive ones.

its just a fad on here to say bosch is trash, ive posted a valid fix and i will be doing a write up on it with pics.

Straight from the WIKIPEDIA

1976 First oxygen sensors - Bosch
1998 First Planar o2 sensor - Bosch
ect. ect. ect.
Get my point yet?
Denso pays bosch for their patent everytime they produce a o2 sensor. so in all actually is all your doing when you buy a denso or other jap o2 sensor is buying a knock off bosch. loool seriously.

oh really? why does my car say Made in Japan dumb ass! so what if Bosch invented sex! it doesnt mean that there products are amazing or that they work. I have had personal experience with shitty Bosch products and I wont chance it again when I have NGK that is the best and I know that it is OEM and my car is designed to use it! so I have that gratification of OEM parts just how she rolled off the line. Many people on here have had shitty experience with Bosch "quality" So obviously somethings up, not only that but Ive never heard a thread about NGK being shite.

Hell no you car doesnt say made in JAPAN unless you bought it from japan , every accord 90-93 that touched the US was manufactured here, USDM (US domestic manufacturer) and JDM (Japanese Domestic Manufacturer) its cheaper for them to make the car here then it would to produce it over seas and ship it here.


Shit they even have Canadian made accords, and EDM(euro).

But you right in your own way but im right in my own way. MY bosch works perfectly with no problems.

WE are all ACCORD fans here...
cant we all just get along?

[starchland]

yeah were getting along just having a nice talk. your right, I did import my car in 92

Bosch does not suck. Their parts are generally just not ideal for our cars.

Slice One, thanks for the info on how to make the Bosch o2 sensor work!

[alb_accord]

and slice t
thanks for the diagram too.

[LowNknoxville]

going to try the bosch tommorow. Ill let you know how the rewiring goes. PEACE

[90_ACCORD]

I have literally the same exact problem. i changed the o2 sensor and it did change dramastically how the car drove but from time to time i still get a little hesitation on acceleration and the check engine light came on again. at first i thought it was an egr valve but the code was never thrown. well when the code came on again i checked it and it threw code 43 and 12.

12 is the egr valve and i know when that goes bad it causes all those problems so maybe fixing that will help. im gonna try it and ill let you know what happenes

Not as long as you keep spewing bad advice and incorrect information. They did manufacture sedans in Japan and ship them here. I see them in the JY and many members have rides made in Japan. http://cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.p...&highlight=vin

And its Market, not Manufacturer. If it was Manufacturer, there would be no JDM coupes. ALL coupes were made in America, so by your reasoning they would all be USDM.
