The connector for the downpipe O2 (the main one) should be onthe harness that goes to the front of the motor with the A/C and Alternator wiring. The plug clips on a small bracket on the alternator when installed correctly.

Ok there are only 2 sheilded wires that come off of the ECU.

#1 is the Knock sensor wire, runs straight to the knock sensor and the sheilding is grounded at the ECU.

#2 is the O2 sensor wire, it runst straight from the o2 sensor to the ECU and the shielding is also grounded at the ECU.

Trace these 2 wires out from the ECU and you will either finde the plug or find out that you don't have a plug for your O2 sensor.

Sheilded look something like coax cable, it has a core that is insulated by rubber (looks like a normal wire) then around that there is a shielding(bare wires that are wrapped around the insulated core) then there is rubber insulation around that.

I believe one is a thick brown wire with a white core, the other is a clear wire with a white core with copper colored sheilding. These wires have to be grounded at the ecu and the sheilding can not touch the core or you sensors will not work and you will get cel's.

i see two wires coming out of the interior into the engine bay with the rest of the engine harness, i forget the colors right now, i will post them in a second but one is thicker than the other, however neither of these wires actually make it to the alternator with the rest of the wires in that area i guess i iwll have to trace where they are going from the firewall
