Hi all

Last week my oxygen sensor plug fell onto the dump pipe of my exhaust. Now i've had to re-wire the 02 sensor (cut it before the plug cause it was absolutely f**ked) And since then ive been getting 0v :P So I'm more than guessing ive hooked it up the wrong way (scan tool to check voltages)

The pic I have attached is of the 3 wires... One of the wires have like, 2 different wires surrounding the central wire.. anyways ill show u the pic.

please let me know ASAP as my fuel consumption is absolutely herrendous.. lol!

Thanks in advance

(ive tried searching to know availe)

does anybody know?

Can I even re-wire them? please help... noob to auto electronics..

EDIT: Ok, ive done a bit more research, it seems there is some sort of shielded ground on one of the wires, what do i do with that?

Also, i noticed that one of the o2 wires is connected to the AAC valve... hmm.. this would cause idle problems im more than guessing...

this is so damn confusing!#%!@#

The light blue wire with the white stripe is the power feed for the heater and light brown wire with white stripe is the heater earth wire (pin115). The shielded wire (quote "One of the wires have like, 2 different wires surrounding the central wire.. ") is the ECU signal wire (pin29).

The light blue wire should have about batt voltage when you turn the ignition on.

The light blue wire with white stripe should be connected to one of the white wires and the other white wire connected to the light brown wire with white stripe. It shouldn鈥檛 really matter which white wire you use as they both connect to the 2 sides of a resister (according to the wiring diagram). I confirmed continuity and a resistance of about 4 ohms. The heater is used to bring the O2 sensor up to temp quickly which is useful on cold starts. The O2 sensor should work without these 2 wires connected.

The remaining black wire should be connected to the shielded wire as this is signal wire for the ECU. It is important you connect this wire if nothing else.

Hope this helps.

Ben

You are awesome! thanks heaps mate..

with the shield ground, i should just strip the shield wire down a bit more and make sure only the copper wire is touching the sensor on the o2 sensor.. my understanding of a shield wire is that it is only grounded at one end, and im guessing its gonna be grounded at the ECU.

ill go try now

      I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road.

      That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 馃挭馃徏 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...

      Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
