Passenger Side Downstream O2 Female cable & plug

[StusRover]

I have an 02 sensor that is intermittently working. I need to splice in a "new" plug. Shipped to 30318. If it could have plenty of wire left to give me some grace while splicing I would appreciate it.

Make sure you solder that splice. Butt connectors won't cut it.

Not trying to be a wise-ass this time, but why?

Crimp connectors are fine (in fact recommended/required for air ingress) on the sensor side, and the harness connector is mounted on a bracket, so there's little chance of tension on the wires. It would be good practice to solder this splice, but crimps will do the job, IMHO.

I had crimped with butt connectors and had poor results.
Solder, liquid electrical tape, and heat shrink tubing did the trick for me.
