Volvo Repair: oxygen sensors, oxygen sensors, wiring harnesses
QuestionMy 1997 850 volvo non-turbo showed a PO141 so I spliced in a universal sensor downstream. Then I immediately got a 131. So I spliced in a universal upstream. Unfortunately, the 131 keeps coming back. Suggestions? I know that Volvo recommends changing both wiring harnesses when an O2 sensor is replaced on the 97. Should I do that? Did I make a mistake in using the cheap universals?
AnswerSteve, never put that garbage in there. Its a nightmare. Spend the extra money and get the real bosch sensor. I dont know where you read about the harnesses. Replace both sensors if you really want too. We never replace the harnesses unless there is something wrong with them. Roger
