Default B18c5 o2 sensor problem.. 2wires vs 4wires

I just got a b18c5 and swapped it into my db7.

They did not have the o2 sensor hooked up and here lies the problem!

The harness is for 2wires and everthing i have found is for 4wires.

What can i do?

Its been a while, but i think that the 2 wire is just the power send and return where as the 4 wire is power send/return and heater control.

Try searching for 02 sensor diagrams

I do that and all of them come back as 4wires

Will any 2wire o2 work?

4-wire O2 - 2-black = heater wires - 1-white = O2 signal - 1-green = O2 signal ground

2-wire O2 (which I've never seen so I'm guessing) - 1-white = O2 signal - 1-green or black = O2 signal ground

it really doesn't matter what wires are what. the key is the ECU and the O2 play well together. Which ECU are you running?
