Default 02 sensor wiring driving me crazy!!

On my 02 sensor harness I have a green, white, red, black wires. On my 02 sensor I have purple white grey black.



according to this the purple and white are heaters, black is signal and grey is ground.

Now what I cant figure out is which one goes to what? Ive tried looking for 02 harness diagram, wiring diagrams, and apparently my searching skills suck!

Anybody know what goes to where?

car is a 95 honda del sol 4 wire.

the ecu pinout says white is for the 02 primary, and from the few info ive been able to find green is ground and red is heater but im not too sure on that since the other 2 colors were grey and yellow and on mine are white and black.

1995 honda honda del sol type S. harness/02 have 4 wires.

Your O2 sensor wire harness should have these 4 wires:

Sensor - Wht wire (signal) & Grn/Wht wire (ground)
Heater - Orn/Blk wire (ground) & Yel/Blk wire (power)

It has green, white, black and RED. or a suntanned orange lol

lemme go wire them up real quick and reset the ecu and see if it still throws code 41. All the wires are properly inserted in the harness.

I was looking at the plug on the 02 side, not the wire harness side.

Lemme go back outside...

--Do you have a Delphi 2 O2 sensor?

--Wires have a main color and a strip color, for example Grn/Wht.

No. You never answered this important question:

Without you correctly stating the wire harness wire colors, it's impossible to give you answers, right?

What I should have clearly said was that I was looking at the wrong wires, and yes the wires on the harness DO have 2 colors. The wires on the 02 plug have one solid color.
