I have a 98 Explorer that all of a sudden did not start anymore.
The dashboard light to the very left is on (see attached pic, if it got uploaded !).
I could not find mention of it in the users manual but a dealer told me it is the catalysator light.
Any clue where the possibly faulty sensor or its connection could be, so that I can try and short it to see whether it starts again ?

I wanted to buy an OBDII cable to run an OBD scanner app on the laptop, has anybody any experience with those ?

Thanks,

Alberto...
