did you disconnect the battery while you were washing the motor? Did you cover up electrical components so they wouldn't get wet? You probably got water inside the sensor and when you ran the car it shorted and cooked itself.

Didn't disconnect hart, but did cover stuff up. Car seems like its lacking power now, don't have the get up and go it did.

I fixed the melted sensor, spiced in new connector. Changed o2 sensor and cleared check engine light. Car seems sluggish when on it now. Ran fine before washing it. Changed plugs,wires,coils. Seems to run smooth. Can hear cold intake more than before, seems like a cat plugging but just from a wash? Have an off-road pipe with hollowed cats coming Fri. Also got an sct tuner, hope this fixes the prob. Wish I never washed it. Any suggestions? I am stumped.
