Rodeo S 4WD V6-3.2L (1999)
-
Bank 2 sensor 2 is mounted behind the left-hand catalytic converter.
3. Disconnect the pigtail from the wiring harness.
IMPORTANT: The pigtail is permanently attached to the sensor. Be careful not to pull the wires out.
NOTE: Do not use a torch to remove an HO2S unless the sensor is being replaced. Using a torch could damage the sensor.
4. Remove the sensor from the exhaust pipe.
-
Because of the expansion and contraction of the metal in the exhaust system over time, this may be difficult if the engine temperature is below
48 °C (120 °F).
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
-
A special anti-seize compound, P/N 5613695, is used on the HO2S threads. This compound consists of glass beads suspended in a liquid graphite
solution. The graphite burns away with engine heat, but the glass beads will remain, making the sensor easier to remove.
-
New or service sensors will already have the compound applied to the threads. If a sensor is removed and is to be reinstalled for any reason, the
threads must have anti-seize compound applied.
1. Apply anti-seize compound or the equivalent to the threads of the oxygen sensor, if necessary.
2. Install the oxygen sensor on the exhaust pipe in its original position.
