lambda sensor fault?

[lee-ep3]

i have recently replaced the pre cat sensor as the engine management light came on it was ok for a couple of days but the light came on again today so i plugged it in & it came up with same fault of pre cat sensor i then turned it off but it has come on again the car drives perfect no power loss at all will it read the same code for both sensors or do they have seperate codes? i was wondering if the other sensor has gone

What sensor did you replace it with ? A cheap one or a proper Honda one?

I'd say that was genuine Bosch.

No it is not a Honda one, I have heard of people using non Honda parts on the CAT and them failing within a short time. Try a proper Honda item - they are roughly £140.
