Mine is a Diesel. Having trouble with the Oxygen sensors or Exhaust temperature sensors.  
Dealer is too expensive for me; and, I’m electronics qualified. How do I get information or schematics ? How dependable are sensors which you “splice-in” ( no connector on the end ) ?

I assume you’re getting a check-engine light and a code. Have you verified that the sensors are actually bad? When a code is thrown, there’s a list of things to check to find out exactly what’s wrong. You can’t just assume the sensor itself is bad.

If the dealer is too expensive, then you should find a good local independent mechanic for most of your repairs.
