Hi,

Check the Temp II wire connections for corrosion or breakage, especially
near the connector. (actually check all the connections you can while you're
in there. Especially ground straps. Same thing happened to me (panic time)
Also make sure no vacuum leaks or  corrosion on wire connections and ground
to the O2.

Wish I could say I know these things cuz I'm so smart.....but I can't.
Learned it all from the great people on this list.

Cheers,
Katy
