    Check out the build
    It seems like that's it. I don't know what's circled, but if the red/blue wire has power (and the switch is not illuminated) then the bottom would be connected to the relay going to the lightbar.

    Dumb question but do I need to reset the ecu after changing the o2 sensors? I cleared the previous code with my ultragauge but do I also need to pull the battery terminal?

    Reason I ask is because I have to get a smog tomorrow and I know resetting the ecu messes with everything and loses data the smog techs need to pass the vehicle (takes multiple long drives to restablish the data).

    So just getting back from Costa Rica and have to spend the night in L.A. :puke:We pull up to the hotel and guess what's across the street. It's Randy's doughnuts from Iorn man 2. You would think Tony Stark could afford to eat in a better neighborhood this place is a total shithole.

    OBDII reader, clear the MIL (Maintenance Indicator Light), check which readiness check was failed by using OBDII reader, follow, do not disconnect vehicle battery battery or reset ecu.

    https://www.toyotaparts.metro-toyota.com/READINESS_MONITOR_DRIVE_PATTERNS_T-EG02-003.pdf

    Starting page 10, find directions for and subsequently follow indicated drive pattern for readiness check.

    I'm pretty certain that No vehicles are allowed in Desolation Wilderness.

    I don't doubt you that there is a trail. But, it must be close to Desolation Wilderness, and not IN the Wilderness. Not trying to argue with you, just trying to clarify.

    "In the United States, a Wilderness Area is an area of federal land set aside by an act of Congress. Human activities in wilderness areas are restricted to scientific study and non-mechanized recreation; horses are permitted but motorized vehicles and equipment are not."


    All that being said, I'm seriously interested in doing a couple nite camping trip to the Sierras. Preferably one that has a nice little lake, or two, nearby so as to take advantage of swimming, fishing.
