Installation Procedure
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2007 GMC Yukon XL, 2007 GMC Yukon, 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2007 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
A special anti-seize compound is used on the HO2S threads. The compound consists of liquid graphite and glass beads. The graphite tends to burn away, but the glass beads remain, making the sensor easier to remove. New, or service replacement sensors already have the compound applied to the threads. If the sensor is removed from an exhaust component and if for any reason the sensor is to be reinstalled, the threads must have anti-seize compound applied before the reinstallation.
- If reinstalling the old sensor, coat the threads with anti-seize compound GM P/N 12377953, or equivalent.
- Install the HO2S (3).
Tighten: Tighten the sensor to 42 N.m (31 lb ft).
- Connect the HO2S electrical connector to the engine wiring harness electrical connector (1).
- Install the CPA retainer (2).
- Lower the vehicle.
NOTE:
