CEL Six wont go away!!!!!!

Im throwing cel code 6 (engine coolant temperature sensor) so I replaced the sensor and I went to check the code using my stock cx ecu and its gone, but when I put any of my two chipped p28s in its trips the code again, I cant handle this I swear im just going to sell my car and be done with it

Still having this problem, what would cause a code to keep coming up even after I replaced the sensor with a new one and reseting the ecu?

Bad wiring would make sense....

Spice into the ect sensor wires and run them directly to the ecu.

Ecu wires are D13 for Signal & D22 for Sensor Ground.

Hope you get it sorted.

Well I spliced the ECT sensor directly to the ecu and put some electrical grease on the connector so now that problem is solved, for now anyways but Im sure itll come back....

So anyways now when I plug a p28 in with j1 cut the cel is off, but as soon as I reconnect j1 the cel comes back on, how do I fix that

just in case it matters Im using hondata s200

WHat is the CEL for? IS the interface box flashing or solid?

The interface box is flashing, the cel is for the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor which I replaced, theres 5v at the plug, sometimes cel 1 (oxygen sensor) will come up then go away, this is all when I reset the ecu and turn the key to the ON position

The flashing interface box indicates either improper socketing of the ecu, wrong bin file on the eeprom, or a bad interface cable. You should take this to your dealer and have them test it using theri equipment to find where the problem lies.

Can I take just the ecu and the interface box, or do I have to take my car aswell

It is best to take everythign so they can test everything

I recently got a new header and exhaust so I figured I start my car to see how they sound, and to my surprise Code 4 (crank position sensor) pops so after some research I find that sometimes code 4 can somehow trip as a code 6 or something weird like that anyways looks like I need a new dizzy... and also a job
