Air Fuel Ratio Sensor Installation

Postby Suby786 » Sat Dec 08, 2012 9:35 pm

I was after some assistance in installing an A/F ratio sensor on my 04 Liberty GT.

Havent had a chance to work on this car myself, but very keen to learn.

Some assistance would be much appreciated =)

Cheers

The af sensor is on the top of the dump pipe, just behind the turbo. Disconnect the connector and using a 22mm spanner or an o2 sensor socket undo the sensor. Fit the new sensor and clear the ecu memory.

Did you do it up tight? May be exhaust leak. Or faulty sensor?
