O2 sensor signal (High) wire.... which one?

Looking for the 02 sensor signal wire... on the ECU side I have red,yellow,black, and black w/green.... on the sensor side I have 2 whites, a gray, and a black. I need to know for sure which is the one....

I would think that the two white ones would be the heater circuit.... which would leave the black and the gray. They line up with the yellow and the black on the ECU side, but opposite. Yellow goes to black and black to gray.

Anyone?

That matches the Hanes pre-cat O2 sensor description pretty closely.

It shows the following for O2 sensor pre-cat wires:
  • Pin 1 0.5mm squared Yellow wire
  • Pin 2 0.5mm sq Black wire
  • Pin 3 1.0mm squared Black/Green wire

I'm going to GUESS the heavier wire (Black/Green) is the heater, but who knows?

Get out a voltmeter and see. You should see a 0.0 Volt to 1.0 Volt signal. (Probably near 0.5 Volt when things are warmed up and running normally.)

I had figured it out thanks.... went to Northamerican motoring and they backed up my guess. The black wire on the sensor/yellow wire on the ECU harness is the high signal path. I wanted to know for sure which one it was so I didn't have to splice/open a wire that I didn't want to. All hooked up and ready to go.

For searching purposes, ignore:
