thats whoosha,but i looked through the tech section and couldn't find what i need. what i need is which color wires on the loom in the engine bay do i connect to the wires of the new oxygen sensor.


NEW OXYGEN SENSOR"

BLUE(signal to computer)
WHITE(sensor ground)
BLACK x2(heater not polarity dependant)


ENGINE BAY CONNECTOR"

GREY x2 wires
LIGHT GREEN
BLACK WIRE+ WHITE trace


i need to know as an example:do i connect 2x black(new sensor)to 2x grey(connector in engine bay) do i put WHITE to the LIGHT GREEN,do i put WHITE to the BLACK+WHITE trace ect...

someone must have fitted a universal oxygen sensor with bare wires(no connector) and had to wire it up.

thanks rob

Your example is right, black/white is signal, green is ground, grey are heater.
