thanks!

You have an 05 that's out of warranty? do you have that many miles already? lol

the ECU swapping thing would probably have to be done by a dealership, since you have to contend with the immobilizer

no , the 02 is giving trouble but i also have an 05. but can i use the ap2 ecu to check the on the ap1?

the service manual says to tape the keys together, IIRC, so the immobilizer recognizes the correct code. can i do that?

follow what the service manual says. as for putting an ap2 ECU on an ap1, i think you're ok, but double check with SlowS2k or Billman250 or xviper on that one.

As said, sensor is 0-1V and when on part throttle, idle or cruise it will bounce from lean to rich, at a rate depending on throttle pos. If you go into VTEC or put your foot flat (WOT) it should go near to 0.8v

Be unusual for one to fail so quick though.

How long has it been doing it? How many miles on the car?

That's normal for a narrow band O2 sensor. The range is 0 to 1 volt, but the ECU is
constantly adjusting A/F ratio, so it rarely will make it to 0 or 1 volt. .5 volt is theoretically
the stochiometric point (14.7). Too bad S2000's don't have wideband sensors.

Seems like the .035 volt is a bit low (lean). Does it go down below .1 every time
it fluctuates?

Unless the 02 volts are staying high (above 1 volt) or staying low (.2-.3 volts) the 02 feedback isn't your problem.
