i've been getting a CEL

[mxmaz]

My CEL has been flashing so i jumpered the ten and gnd. It flashed once, followed by a short pause and then flashed 7 times quickly. From what i could understand by reading the faq, thats a code 17 right? Which is LH02S inversion error. How would this effect the way the car runs cause it seems to run fine?
Thanks in advance

bad o2 sensor, I had the same thing. Car ran good, but once I replaced it it ran much better.

Would the left o2 sensor be considered the front or rear one?. I know in the v6 faq it says the left is the front, and there is another post in this section that says the left is the rear.

which is the front o2 sensor. Front exhaust mailfold by the rad.

The end of the engine with the drive belts is the front; the end with the clutch is the rear, so the left bank of cylinders is towards the front of the engine compartment, and the left O2 sensor likewise.

Just checking to make sure this is the correct ntk o2 sensor before i go ahead and buy it, if anyone could let me know.
