Installation Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Coat the threads of the HO2S with anti-seize compound GM P/N 12377953 or equivalent, if necessary.
- Install the HO2S (3). Use the J 39194-B
, if necessary. See Special Tools .
Tighten: Tighten the sensor to 42 N.m (31 lb ft).
- Connect the HO2S electrical connector to the engine wiring harness electrical connector.
- Install the CPA retainer (1).
- Lower the vehicle.
NOTE:
A special anti-seize compound is used on the HO2S 2 threads. The compound consists of graphite suspended in fluid and glass beads. The graphite will burn away, but the glass beads will remain, making the sensor easier to remove. New or service sensors will already have the compound applied to the threads. If a sensor is removed from an engine and is to be reinstalled, the threads must have anti-seize compound applied before reinstallation.
CAUTION:
Refer to Fastener Caution
