another Nissan/Subie parts interchange


Recommended Posts

In case some other scavengers here, that like to save a buck when possible, are interested... My CEL was back on last weekend,(96 OBW) this time a rear O2 sensor heater code. On the lift, the problem was obvious... the outer shell on the sensor had cracked/rusted open. Made a couple calls, most local parts stores wanted in the $120 range. I had a late 90's Nissan Maxima exhaust system on the floor next to my bay, on its way to the scrap pile, with a familiar looking sensor still screwed in the pipe. Only difference was the connector. A little splicing, soldering, heat shrinking... Code is gone, car is fixxed. And I saved 120 bucks. I may have been hesitant if it were a front O2 that actually affects the car, but a rear O2 that only monitors the cat anyway...it was worth a shot.
