02 Sensor cable length ?

[vxcalais_01]

Hi,

I got some new NTK 2 wire oxy sensors, but the cables seem to be too short (320mm?). Would these of manually been extended when the headers were installed ? I notice there are some extender harness available online.

Buy the extension harnesses.

Thanks for that. I can only seem to find the 4 wire version for the extension. Might just manually add on some wire and crimp seal it.

Why not make your own extension then?

Do it much tidier.

Thanks for that. They only have 4 wire sensors which seems to be the cast with most.

Think I will do it this way if I can find the 2 wire connectors so I use them again in the future if need be. Thanks

if u extend it yourself always use proper plug/terminals for these or a good crimp join, just dont soldier them

When I solder, I put some silicon grease on them and shrink tube over it. Makes a corrosion free seal. If I crimp I use liquid insulator to seal crimp openings. Or I just use the waterproof solder shrink tubes.

its more so the type of sensor that it needs a crimp, when millivolts are used then wire in the loom can be a ''compensating loom'' so it has a set resistance per/foot so the signal is correct, using soldier can change the resistance of the loom
