sorry to intrude on your thread, but the answer to my question might be of help to you too..

the manual that came with the LC-1 said that the LED indicator will blink steadily indicating that the sensor is warming up and when its warm the LED will be lit (not blinking).. does this mean i can't start the car until its steadily lit? another scenario is when i turn off the engine and want to start again .. do i really need to wait for the O2 sensor to warm up? or can i just start the car? its really annoying having to wait for the sensor to warm up... i just hate waiting.
It just means that until the sensor has warmed, you won't get a reading, the same as any oxygen sensor before the system gets warm and goes into closed loop.
