Removal
1. The oxygen sensor is screwed into the exhaust pipe in front of the catalytic converter.
2. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
3. Disconnect the L-probe wiring connector. The connector is secured in a bracket mounted on the thermostat housing. If there are two connectors secured in the bracket, the lower one is the one you need. After disconnecting the connector, release the plug from the bracket.
Note. Since part of the wiring harness is built into the sensor housing, a special open-end wrench with a slotted head is required to unscrew the sensor. Working under the car, unscrew the l-probe from the exhaust system section. Try not to damage the sensitive working element of the sensor.
Installation
1. Lightly lubricate the threaded part of the sensor with anti-seize sealant. Under no circumstances should the sealant come into contact with the working element of the sensor.
2. Install the sensor in its housing and tighten it to the required torque. Restore the original wiring connection. Readers should note that different vehicles may have different types of l-probes installed, which are not interchangeable.
