Hi all!
I'm new here and trying to hash out a problem with my daughter's truck.
2015 Ram 1500 4x4 Crew Cab 5.7L short box 8 speed transmission.
Long story short...she had the lifter tick which wiped out her cam, so the engine was rebuilt. Just thought I'd mention that.
A friend had replaced the O2 sensors previous to the engine rebuild and now we're getting a P219A code. We consulted the shop that did the engine work and were told her friend installed the wrong O2 sensors and the scan tool is indicating an imbalance in bank 1 sensor 1. They were Bosch and there were no vents around the sensor body, only at the tip!
I attempted to get Mopar sensors, but the wait time for shipment was too long so I went to Napa and got NTK. My research indicated that NTK was the OE supplier, so I had confidence in the quality. The problem is that different sources all over the web vary on which sensor goes where. I've even read somewhere that all 4 sensors are the same and it's just the length of the wire that matters. I don't know if that's true though.
So, maybe someone here can help me out with the location of each sensor or if I even have the correct sensors.
I have all NTK sensors. Here are the part numbers:
23161 The wire on this one is about 11" long.
23162 (I was sold two of these) The wires on these are about 6" long.
23165 The wire on this one is about 15.5" long.
Looking at the connectors on the new sensors, they all appear to look the same, however I have not tried plugging any of them in.
Again, the truck runs fine, but puts out code 219A
Thanks!,
Joe
