O2 and door lock is bad
My 98' 240sx
Help!!!!!!!!!
1. My engine light came on about a month and a half ago, code was to replace O2 sensor.
Question:
- Where can I get a cheap O2 sensor? Nissan has a monopoly up here and well charge me an arm and leg
- Should I repace it myself? Looks very easly to acesess.
2. My Driver side door won't lock and unlock from the outside. It a pain, I have to unlock from the passenger side.
Question:
- Should I fix it myself, is it easy?
Help!

Well get a O2 sensor from advanced auto or someplace cheap like that. Pepboys carries botch. You WILL notice a difference in your idle and performance when you get a new one because it will even out your air/fuel mixture more since itll be reading correct. Also about your door, take the panel off and see if you can find whats wrong. Good luck

O2 sensor's can be found @ any auto store like he said, they'll offer you two types, a sensor with a universal end that you'll have to make fit, or the one that the wiring slides right in. Do yourself a favor, save the $10 and but the cheaper on, and buy a connector end and DIY.
With the door, could be a lot of things. Take the door off, see if it's mechanical or electrical.

On your exhaust header. The o2 sensor is screwed into it. Unscrew, renew, cut, strip and crimp. You cant mess it up, dont worry.
