cable plug for an lsu 4.2 sensor
paulf - 14/6/07 at 06:59 PM

I need a connector plug for a bosch wideband sensor to fit it to an LC1 controller.I obtained some cheap widebands from a nissan but the plug is different.
Has anyone got a damaged sensor that they could cut the plug off for me?

The connector on the sensor contains a calibration resistor, I'm not sure what'll happen if you cut it off and replace it with a diferent connector and resistor. IMO you're better off replacing the connector on the LC-1 loom to match the sensor you have. There's a bit of info on LSU connectors here, not sure if any of those will be what you have?

I dont think the calibration resistor is required with the LC1 controller, the unit is built into a connector with no seperate lead so cant change the socket.
The type of plug I require is the VW bosch 057 or 200 type.

But isnt that the socket normally connected to the cars loom ? I need the plug that is hardwired to the sensor itself.I suppose i could try a VW dealer to see if they have an old sensor that i could cut the plug off.
