Rear O2 sensor failure
Rear O2 sensor failure
I tried a search and did not find anything. After numerous attempts to get rid of the SES light from running a test pipe. I can only conclude that the sensor is bad. My question is where can I get a replacement sensor for a fraction of the cost that the dealers want to charge?. will any other sensors work ? or does it have to be OEM? . I mean can I go to Pep Boys and buy one from say an Eclipse. I noticed when I was underneath looking at it if you remove the rubber grommet and pull the slack out of the sensor it looks like a plug and play. Meaning a simple replacement job that even I could do . I think pep boys had a bosch for $98.
My primary O2 sensor failed once already which makes me think this is the same, replaced under warranty by the way. I have an apointment on Tues at the dealer to look at it. But this is really my fault for extending the wiring and so I can't really complain if they don't fix it. By the way I have the UR 3" test pipe and the antifouler things installed. Anyone else have a problem with this ? Thanks

How many of the antifouler spacers do you have installed? One didn't work for me, I needed two. The first one drilled out 1/2" and the second as it came, NOT drilled out.

I have 2 foulers installed along with the test pipe. If you buy the universal how do you know which is which.as far as the sensor is concerned. I really would like to get plug and play if possible

Moreover, you may want to re-think your theory that the sensor is bad. Test your current sensor by putting the cat back in.
Good Luck!

There are just a few models that are shared over all platforms--Ford, Chevy, GM, Honda, Mitsu, etc..... 02 sensor--It just gives values back to the computer that uses those values in it's calculations. Any parts store will guide you to the correct replacement.

So if I got to autozone or where ever I should be able to get a plug and play?. I think I saw somewhere an OEM sensor was like $250. I will put an AEM in B4 I pay even close to that for a sensor
