Help needed asap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

need help,asap

 

dose anyone know?

 

o2 sensor does not cause a no start...Im a mechanic and also a smog tech...

 

Was your battery connected at the time?

 

yes they can be spliced

 

Although they can be spliced, the wires are shielded and have a certain impedence lvl to them to give them ECU exact readings. Splicing them like you would a radio would cause havok to your ECU and afr. You are better off fixing it correctly by getting a new O2 sensor.

My .02 cents.

 

well i spliced the wires,still dosent start....any ideas?

 

Was the battery connected when you pinched the wires? Have you checked for any blown fuses or could you have possibly caused anything else while you were doing whatever it was you were doing?

And when you say the car won't start, what exactly happens?

 

yes the battery was connected when i pinched the wires.The car turns over but its like its not getting fuel...what fuses could possibly be blown?which fuse box might they be in( under the hood,or inside?)

 

When you put the key and click it to on position, you should hear the fuel pump a bit. If you do not hear it then that is why your car doesnt want to turn over. Very high probability this is a fuse issue

 

i fixed it thanks alot fot the help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

so wat was really wrong with it...
