RE: Dueal EIFE promblem
I'm talking about the activity lights flashing on and off. They should be flashing on and off. When accelerating, they won't flash, on and off. But while idling and cruising the lights should flash on and off.

I think you may have your EFIE set too high. Try backing it off until the voltage is at .350 volts. See if the code will stay away. Be sure to reset your computer. If that keeps the code from coming back, then you can try .325, .300, .275. Change it by .025 volts and drive for a tankful and see what your mileage is, and if the code stays away.

You may only have one sensor. I can't look your vehicle up. But it should have a sensor that is downstream from the catalytic converter. Requirements may differ for different countries, but a 2005 should be obd2 compliant and therefore should have a downstream sensor.

Also see colchiro's note. You should be able to get your code read at your auto parts store. 6 blinks doesn't tell me what caused the fault. The code reader should tell us exactly what the fault is.

Mine car is not 2005 but 1995. I saw mechanic last friday and he cleared the code and told to me that its my abs error, and couple others faults which is not related with o2. But error code
- 6 blinks says me that is lambda, http://www.saab9000.com/procedures/power...tcodes.php ) The only reason I should belief them(mechanics), that they have already instaled hho to 7cars as they told me..
I'm lost with HHO, mainly bc EIFESad
Does any1 has any ideas?

When my car is in trouble with HHO, because the range do not allow to work fine, then the car shows me first a yellow ABS-Error. I can stop the engine, pull out the car key, count to ten and restart all. Normaly the yellow error is gone, if not (or the error ist red) I have to reset the car with the diagnostic tool.

I will say, that it's normal that the car doesn't know, that you configured bad your car. The car shows other error, which you don't expect, but conserning the error you build in.

OK, I'm sorry. The '95 shows only the one sensor.

Does the EFIE blink like I asked in my last post? As a reality check, you have a digital EFIE, right? Is it blinking all the time when you're idling? I would back off on it's pot until the voltage is about .35 or more and see if the engine code will stay off.

Your next step is the HHO System Debug Checklist. Go through those steps. Your car will respond. But you need to check out each point on the checklist. Let us know how you make out.
