I replaced the oxygen sensor in exhaust collector, but "service
engine" light doesn't go off. I did have the code 133 (O2 sensor slow
response).
Does anybody know how to erase codes?
Thank you.
Yan.
 
I can think of 4 ways:

1) Go to Autozone, ask them to attach a scanner and turn the light off.
2) Buy a cheap (~$99) scanner and do it yourself.
3) Wait a while (many ignition switch cycles) and it will go off itself.
4) Disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes.
 
Disconnect the battery for a while. Or just keep driving the car - if you
have in fact fixed the problem, it should turn off after a few driving
cycles in which the P0133 test runs and passes. Apparently, on this car the
P0133 test is run after the engine goes into closed-loop fuel control (which
means it must have reached a certain temperature), and RPM must be between
1500-3200 with airflow from 7-25 grams per second for 100 seconds. So a few
freeway drives should do it..
 
There's a LOT of ways in that general category for erasing LOTS of
electronics!

I just sort of presumed that he still wanted to use the PCM after it was
erased. Sorry...
 
....just like an engineer - always being specific! (grin)

Interesting comment about the engine oil usage with the ecotech...
