Fixed my 4BCC CEL

5. Whichever sensor is bad is the one you bridge. To avoid having a dangling sensor/water intrusion, I took a 10k Ohm resistor and stuffed it into the connector, bridging the two leads of the connector (to be clear: the connector side, not the sensor side. It fits together better that way). This is a tight fit back together because it's not supposed to have a resistor in there... but with enough coaxing it goes back together.
6. Put everything back into its home.

Thx a lot Bobman. This really helps me to take up on this job and save 3500.00. Xemodex is also $900 and I'm guessing they do the same.

My main question/clarification is "where to insert the resistor" and in which pins. I saw many threads and it's hard for me to figure out if:

1.) Do I need to use 1 resistor OR 2 resistors?

2.) Does the resistor go from pin1 to pin2?

Adding some pics so you can guide me better; thx a lot!!
