Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace a downstream O2 sensor on this 2004 Chrysler Sebring with the 2.7 Liter V6. This is a similar repair in a large variety of Chrysler and Dodge vehicles with the V6 engine. The only items you need for this are a new O2 sensor from 1AAuto.com, an O2 sensor socket from 1AAuto.com, or a 7/8 wrench, and penetrating oil.
Now, we sell an O2 sensor socket with the O2 sensors in a kit. You can use a 7/8 wrench, but these O2 sockets actually help quite a bit. You can see it's specially designed to accommodate the wires on the O2 sensor by having this open side. You can just use a ratchet to remove it. In some cases, using these type of sockets are the only way to actually get the O2 sensor out.
You don't need to lift your vehicle, but we do just so it's easier to show you. Here is the downstream O2 sensor we're going to change today. You want to start off just by spraying it with some penetrating oil and letting it sit for a second. Before removing that, you want to disconnect this harness right here. Using either a flat blade screwdriver, or your thumbnail, you want to push down the tab in there, and pull the harness apart. Now, using either your 7/8 inch wrench, or your O2 sensor socket, you just want to go ahead and remove that O2 sensor. We're just going to fast forward as he removes that.
You can see, on the left, is your old O2 sensor. On the right, is the new one from 1A Auto. They're identical. They'll work exactly the same and fit exactly the same. You just want to put your new O2 sensor into place and just twist it in. You just want to tighten that up with your wrench, or your socket, and then reconnect your harness. Now there it is, good as new.
