    Default Can ya check for me.....

    Can people check for me, the location of where the wires for oxygen sensor are supposed to go???

    According to the manual & looking at my mates VP, mine are definetly in the wrong spot. Had a code logged since having the trans done & it appears the wires now go to somewhere on the trans instead of the back of the motor or near the manifold??

    Being that Im getting a 13 Id say this would be the cause? yes? no?


    Help please??

    sorry, maybe I need to explain differently.

    The oxygen sensor is in the exhaust & theres 2 wires coming off the top of it. In the manual they show going to close to the side of the motor where the manifold meets.

    On my friends VP shows goin into the back of the motor somewhere.

    The series 2's and VP's with the cast manifolds are probably like the later V8's after the VN's and would screw into the exhaust pipe down near the ground instead of into the header as per VN's, what's so hard about following the wire to the ground ?.

    well yes mines a series 2 so 2 wires....

    Prob was I was getting a 13 code & was thinking that the wires position looked dodgy.... well after having it up on the hoist today.... voila!! I see that it is disconnected as I thought & found the other plug & now is all good!!


    Thx for the pics adam! Was definetly too hard for me to see from the top & I really did need to see it from under to really know what the deal was (yes Im blonde )
