Remote start not working?

[Luhsleeper88]

Hey guys, I’ve been getting a check engine light for a while now and it hasn’t been letting me remote start the car anymore. I went and got my codes scanned and this is what popped up. Could anybody point me in the right direction to fix this part? And if I can fix it at home or if I need to take it into the shop? Thanks

Are you mechanical inclined? Got tools? 02 Sensor socket? Garage to keep warm? Jack and jack stands? Patience? It's not a hard job to do. Replace both of them. Make sure you get the correct ones. Different colored connections. Pain in the ass to unhook sometimes.

Yeah maybe no good… I’m a college student right now and I’m about to go back. The only problem this 02 sensor is giving me is my remote start. I may have to keep the check engine light until I can take it into the shop. Thank you

I got to thinking about it. Have you cleared the check engine codes? Remote start may not work if the check engine light is on. Just a guess. Because the 02's shouldn't affect it.

Yes, you can clear the codes and remote start will work until they pop up again. I did that for a brief period when my chain stretched.
