Dye in the engine throwing codes?
Hello everyone,
So I have a leak that seems to be coming from the oil pump housing. Before I get anything fixed they put some Dye in there to see exactly where its coming from. About 1 - 2 minutes after I left the place, the check engine light and TCS light came on. I got the codes checked at AutoZone:
Oxygen Sensor
Bank 1 Sensor 1
Low voltage
Will any of that cause that problem?
Thanks.

dye in the oil should not come in contact with the O2 sensor
unless some major blow-by past the rings is occuring!!
you ckd the electrical system to be certain all is well with batt alt and cables?
so no false signal from funky voltage
I would seafoam the gas before replacing the sensor

open passenger front door- look at end of dash--see cover to fuses
remove cover
look for fuse #12 iirc,,or 13,,clearly marked CLOCK
remove for a minute and reinsert fully
close cover- close door
done!

It should be unrelated.. like me when taking my car for smog.. drive fine all these year and suddenly car misfire as the smog tech start my car, during and after smog, car run like crap with CEL after he smog it.. lucky me. Drove home, scanned it = bad coil.

I still think the clock fuse method beats the scanner clear button,,for total reset certainty..have no proof, just feel better that way~
for the radio code- this is why we use the CLOCK fuse,,so you dont pull battery neg cable to reset ecu = enter radio security mode
