Oxygen sensor (fuel injection engine)

Removal





Important: The electrical connector may be located either under the cover panel over the false bulkhead space or under the intake manifold.

2 Unplug the oxygen sensor connector.

3 Withdraw the oxygen sensor's leads. To do this, it may be necessary to raise the A/C pipes slightly.

4 Remove the oxygen sensor.

Important: The leads must not be twisted. The oxygen sensor is sensitive to impacts and jolts and should therefore be handled with care.

2 Fit the oxygen sensor.
Tightening torque: 55 Nm (41 lb ft).
