Catalytic Converter

[davidimc]

I have a 98 Honda Civic GX with 107K miles that is running great but the check engine light keeps coming on saying there's no catalytic converter. I just had a new one put on a couple months ago. Has anyone had a problem like this ?

Never had that problem before on any of my cars. Maybe it could be the O2 sensor?

I have the same problem and I bought the simulator/adaptor for less than $10 and fixed the problem, you can buy it at:

John, can you explain what exactly is the problem and what the part does to fix this ? Thank you.

It's probably a resistor to trick the computer. They are also used to get rid of the "skip shift" found in Vettes, Trans Ams, etc.
