My CEL has come on and before this time it was going on and off due to oxygen sensor 2nd bay (downstream) which the wire had a cut in it. So replaced that and now light came back on and autozone saying its probably the cat converter either clogged or plugged OR in a case could be the 1st oxygen sensor so its reading it as the cat. But my dad mentioned that he had to deal with this with his accord and a odyese they had and he finally tried replacing the gas cap and the light went off. So now to my question does anyone know if a gas cap from say a 96 or 01 accord will fit a 02 civic. I mean are they all the same they look very similar...because my dad has a 96 accord he doesn't use that i can switch out the gas caps. Thanks guys.

I would get a brand new OEM cap for your car. They are only like $25-$30. These wear out after a while and will give you an emmissions code. Don't put on a used cap, as that one (especially coming from a much older car) may be bad as well.

The part number you want is 17670-S5A-A32. The part number for the 96 Accord is different.

What was the scanned code?

Did you use a Bosch sensor? Universal?

Code may still be related to the first issue you were having.
