I put in a bosch 3 wire O2 sensor.

I'm not sure why the video wont work for you...it'* seems to work fine for me. The only thing I can think of is that you dont have the proper plugin, or codec to play the quicktime file.

I'll definately buy a socket for the job next time. Nothing beats having the right tool for the job. Thanks everyone!

See, that'* why I asked. It seems that many here have had nothing but bad luck using the Bosch brand O2 sensors and plugs offered by AZ and Advance. In some cases the Bosch sensors have gone bad after only a few months of use.

Just keep an eye on things and keep it in the back of your mind in case.

And I can play most all putfiles, but it'* very possible that there needs to be a driver/plugin upgrade. These things are a moving target, I swear. :?

Thanks all for your help.

Here is a video...the O2 looks to be in bad condition....hopefully this helps a lot.

Is there a voice in the sound? I didn't get anything other than video.

Nope no voice...I added the video because all of the pics I took didn't have enough clarity to show the tip of the sensor. I wasn't sure if the white burnt look was normal or not... so I decided to share with y'all.
