so I have a lx header and I get a cel when i put my a6 ecu(ex) in. its the o2 sensor code. so when i put my a1(lx) ecu in I dont get the code. So im guessing its because of the placement of the o2 sensor being the lx is higher up then the ex. so is there a way to run a a6 (ex) ecu with a a6(lx) header without it throwing codes. Reason is I dont like the speed limiter on the lx. (115)

that shouldnt be true at all.
what code u throwing, 41? im throwing that right now but only with the new o2 sensor....the old one never threw it...
though when i swaped the ecu it was fine....
thats weird...wait for some more responsesWhat makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.
You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

okay i have two pt6s and one a1 ecu and they both do that. Its cel 41. And my lx ecu is the only one that dose not though the code. I have a a6 intake manifold. I am not looking for the performance I just want the speed limiter gone/raised without a cel.Comment

I'm confused, or maybe not...so the PT6 doesn't have a govoner? What changes would you have to make to the car to remove the speed limiter entirely?2DAO (2 Door Accord Owner)

ok i went to the junkyard. ask to try a ecu and they let me. so i tried an lx ecu. and guess what no code. then i put my lx back and still no code. then ex goes in and theres the code. next ex goes in and the same code. so im so
why would i change the sensor or wiring if i only get codes with certain ecus 
if i get a vaild code on the ex ecu the same should happen on the lx if they all are interchangable

isn't there a difference between the dx/lx O2 sensor vs. the ex O2 sensor ??? the ex being a heated(4 wire) O2 sensor ???5.6L V8 32V DOHC

Yes, the DX/LX (both f22a1) had the O2 sensor on the manifold itself. The EX (f22a6) had the O2 sensor on the downpipe by the oil pan/cat. The f22a4 (in 91 EX I believe) I'm not 100% sure about.Originally posted by PRIMOCB7
I think you're right about the heated O2 sensor on the EX's w/ f22a6.

when i had the a6 many moons ago, i had to replace the O2 sensor. went to Honda and that was how i found out that the ex O2 sensor was a heated sensor. what that means, i don't really know
but i know for a fact, it cost more, around $150 as opposed to $90.

so i guess ill just put the ex one in and have the code o well.Comment
