Where in the engine bay can I do this. I want to pull mine out all together. Since I dont run cats might as well.

hmm I disconnected those but I still got this..
2 Faults Found:
17530 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor Heating: B2 S2: Open Circuit
P1122 - 35-00 - -
17526 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor Heating: B1 S2: Open Circuit
P1118 - 35-00 - -
They didnt used to show up since the stge 3 software hides them or something.

The complete sensor is plugged in, tied up somewhere?
So the sensor element is exposed? If thats the case it's probably got fried from getting wet and so on. Or did I totally miss what you said?

ah good point.. I just figured since the software doesnt look for that code
it would ignore it no matter what. I guess I could get some new O2 sensors to test this theory out. Cant we use the VW ones?

I think I am gonn hook the new ones up and just leave the in the engine bay<m>
so they can stay dry. I guess as long as the ECU sees something there its happy. Thanks again. I've been pulling my hair out on this one. BTW is that the green and brown connector in the engine bay?
