Should it also trigger the engine warning light in the instrument cluster? I've been chasing an AU phantom for ages, have noticed that idle smells rich ATM. Just disconnected the HEGO (O2) sensor altogether and the car starts and runs exactly as per usual. The $15K Korean s**tbox I used for a work car 10 years ago had the "stop engine" light come on when the "servicing" dealer left its HEGO sensor disconnected.

Would someone mind disconnecting their O2 sensor long enough to run their car up to operating temp and post back what happens?

TIA,
Tony.
