The o2 Sensor is fully intact but the copper wire leading from the harness into the yellow side of the connector split yesterday when I was unplugging it.... I've unplugged the thing 50 times without a hitch before

What to do? There's not enough room to get anything in there to remove the old wire and try to splice.


Here's the sensor itself...

and here's the connector. the wire leading into the yellow end broke off.

For a temporary fix I just shoved the wire in there and prayed it would stay on

My coolant temp guage was all over the place last night, completely unrelated right? First time for that too :/

Going to have to strip the harness back a bit and fix the wire. You can depin the connector with a paper clip and solder the wire to the pin... then clip it back in.

The coolant gauge thing sounds.... not good. Is you coolant full?

You need to fix that oil leak first.

I stripped the harness back already so I've got plenty of copper wire to work with - the yellow connector is TINY and hard to get in there to do anything with the wire left inside!

Go to radio shack and buy a soldering gun for $8 dollars.

Holy shit you're pathetic.
