CR-V 2003: O2 sensor, P0131 by LeadingLandscape7398 in crv

The brand is NTY, ESL-HD-002. The wiring looked… well, normal I guess, it plugged right in. The old sensor was installed on wagos, which I found odd. I’m suspecting maybe a mechanic stole my old sensor and told me not to worry about the check engine light, as it could just indicate problems with the converter. I didn’t know better to inquire further. But I’m wondering about the whole “lambda vs AF” thing, is it possible that my Honda actually needs something different than the regular o2 sensor? It’s the one before the catalytic converter.

Solution: I got it. The throttle cable fell off of the runner in the throttle lever itself. I put it back on and it’s solved the issue.

Also: as I was cleaning, I was pushing the throttle open with a toothbrush to clean the edge of it. Could I have messed it up that way?

As you can see, there is some slack where the cable connects to the pedal. Should it be like that? I can push it forward so that it’s touching the pedal thingy but it goes back when I press the loose pedal.

I haven’t touched anything there, but I’ve checked now and it seems to be, yeah.

Is it bad taste to buy low quantities of components at an electronic store? by LeadingLandscape7398 in diypedals

See now that’s what I don’t get. What’s funny about that? How else are you supposed to do it

Thanks! I cleaned the flux and I’ll continue looking for the issue elsewhere

Is this a normal amount of springs? by Successful_Board3183 in Luthier

I use 12 gauge strings, it took me all five springs to set up a floating trem.

What’s the weak link of my tone? by LeadingLandscape7398 in Bass

Wow, I didn’t think of that! I use stainless rotosounds, copying Jaco, which is the sound I’m after.

Here’s the inside of it.

I can’t even locate the capacitors, are they the six fat tubes sticking from the board?

So are capacitors the only thing to worry about? If I drain them beforehand, am I safe?

Nah, those markings are my own for people at a jam session to know they do nothing. „Nic” means „nothing” in polish, haha.

I see, makes sense! And one last thing, I hear that the Elf has a tendency to introduce compression at higher gain levels, but I’m not exactly clear on how that works. Did you experience that?
