Mine didn't work until I replaced the O2 sensor. Then it worked fine.

Oddly, I didn't see a series of light bulbs in the back of the cluster. I think I saw only 2 in that general area, which is weird considering there are approx 4-5 different dash lights there.

Guess I can remove it tomorrow and see.

Oh, I need to figure out how to remove the brake light in the top of the hatch wing thing. I removed the cover, and the bulb wouldn't budge. I need to fix this before I can pass my safety inspection.

Getting off topic but...

Matt, what source did you buy your new O2 sensor from, and would you recommend them? It seems people have had issues in the past with getting the wrong/defective L1H1 and I need one for my VX as well.

Thanks!

actually, the one that came with the engine was cut 1cm from the o2 sensor. The one I got on ebay for $25 was a POS.

I bought one for like $150 on ebay a year or so ago.

I'm really hoping it's just not the placebo effect, but I swear that my acceleration has drastically improved since I put that o2 sensor in.

no bulb as in, "oh, geez, someone took it out" or "I don't see where the bulb would go for the shift light"?
