can be checked with a multimeter on the signal wire of your 02 sensor, should be fluctuating at idle, if not its dead

its one of the wires that comes off your o2 sensor, from memory on my 99 GT it was the white wire off a 3 wire o2 sensor

not sure about your model mate, mine was behind turbo in the dump pipe, yours maybe at the end of the dump pipe under the car or in your headers, i know your model has 12 sensors & 1 is a temp sensor, can't remember which though, no doubt one of the resident experts will chime in shortly

if you can find a diy for installing an afr gauge, its is the same wire you need to tap into for that
