disconnecting the oxygen sensor
« on: July 03, 2011, 03:02:09 PM »
How does the oxygen sensor connector disconnect?  It has the big black plastic round connector.  Does it unscrew, just pull hard or something different?

+1, it's a connector like the AFM harness and C101 (engine to body harness plug).  Those are far superior to the spring-loaded ones IMHO.  I wish all connectors worked as well as those did.
