I did what you said. Perhaps I wasnt detailed enough. I was just telling you what the car did after I tried what you suggested. I put in a good sensor with the car off. I reset the DME by disco the batt and opening a door. I never installed or uninstalled a sensor with the engine running. I may not be a mechanic as a profession, but I know enough to not do something like that!
I did exactly what you said. After the DME is reset, and I try to start the car, it struggles to start. While struggling, the CEL is off at this time, then about 2 seconds later, the CEL comes on and then the car starts up. Again, this is AFTER I did what you told me. So the CEL does reset, but the car wont start until the CEL comes back on. It refuses to start until the CEL shows up...
What I was asking was, should I keep trying to reset it like that? Where should I turn next? Other possible causes/issues . I have no problem tackling any problem that isnt a motor swap, but im not very good at diagnosis.. .
