Default Home Built 02 Sensor Sims (02 sims)

My cats are dying and my service engine soon lite pops on and off, its getting annoying. I could go custom tune and shut them off but I havent done enough to the engine or tranny to justify it yet.

O2 sims are a good solution to the cat problem, but there so damn expensive. Some electrical engineer or anyone should cut one open and figure out what is in there. It can't be more then a few resistors and I'm pretty sure a few bucks to build. All it does is spit out a voltage to trick the computer into thinking the 02's are working.

Someone please figure this out, I bet you could sell them cheap and make money easily.

thats looks good, but it would be nice to have something that plugs in, I will have to try it with some worn out 02's I have laying around.

Anyone else on this topic?
