VTII, V6, no supercharge or turbo.
Have a kinked/cracked wire just near the connector side. It causes intermittent signal faults ( checked with multimeter).
wreckers will only sell entire looms, jaycar do not have compatible connectors nor do any of the automotive chains.
This creates a need to place new connectors and cut in some new wires to replace the cracked wire.
QUESTION The standard commodore wire is steel while the jaycar wire is ether bronze ( greater conductivity)
or steel/tin/bronze combo which again varies on ohms resistance etc. Has anyone mixed wire types ( eg steel mixing with bronze)
and has it been succesful given the sensitivity of oxygen sensor signal output to the ECM?
