6-Pin Universal Oxygen Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

NOTE:

Use the faulty sensor as a guide for installing all of the accompanying attachments, cable ties or marking bands.

Do not crimp or cut the wires otherwise the functionality of the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) will be diminished.

-- Remove the old heated oxygen sensor (HO2S).

-- Lay both of the oxygen sensor next to each other so the sensor housings are the same level.

-- Tie the excess length of the sensor (approximately 2 to 10 inches (50 to 250 mm)) back so it is the same length as the faulty sensor and secure it with cable ties -1-.
