Default 02 5.9 ram o2 question

Check engine light finally pop'd on. o2 sensor bank 1 heater something. Crawled underneath it, found it, tryed to chase the wires and they go up over the trans. I crawled under it on the drivers side, and I looked up while my neighbor was tuggin on the wires, and I saw a plug that was wigglin when he was tuggin on the wires below the dis cap... Is that where it plugs in?? I don't wanna call it good and unplug it and screw something up.

that's about right....

when you replace it, only replace it with a denso or an NTK/NGK.. if you buy bosch or another brand, you're going to be doing that job again soon..

also, since you're going to the parts store anyway: invest in an o2 sensor socket.. it's only about $5, but worth it's weight in gold when you run into a stubborn sensor..
