there was a thread on this about a month ago

What is the difference between a "voltage signal" and a "resistor"?

you know the thread i'm talking about dont ya?

I think it was this one

somthing along the lines of
One sent a signal and the other recived and used a resistior to change the voltage and send it back to the ECU.

Depending on whether or not you can find it at the dealer, and depending on how much it costs, getting it from Megan might be cheaper. It's not on their website, but you can call them and ask for it directly. $15 shipped. (626)581-0988

A lot cheaper than $20 plus shipping (probably $10) that Enjuku wants. $30? For a bolt? Come the fuck on, guys.

You are the ECU and I am the O2 sensor. We're connected by a straw (wire) and we can blow spit wads (electrons) at each other.

When I suck spit wads from you, I am a voltage triggered sensor. Electrons flow from negative (you/ECU) to positive electrical potential (me/sensor). I'm sending a signal to you because I'm sucking your spit wads away.

When I blow spit wads at you, I am a current triggered sensor. Electrons flow from negative (me/sensor) to positive electrical potential (you/ECU). I'm sending you resistance because the more resistance I send, the more spit wads will get blown your way.

It has to do with which way the spit wads are going. The ECU has to know whether it wil get blown or sucked

Now, does skinny and fatty each suck or blow?
