Replacing the Oxygen sensor

Typically the oxygen sensor needs to be replaced every eight (8) to ten (10) months.
The following procedure is a step by step guide to replacing the oxygen sensor.
Refer to Figure "A", Sensor Installation/Replacement Procedure for more detailed
information.
1. Open the analyzer (see Opening / Closing the Analyzer).
2. Carefully pull the oxygen sensor straight up out of the case.
3. Disconnect the ribbon cable from the top of the sensor by lightly spreading open
the two side ejector locks.
4. Gently pull the blue input tube off of the center sensor barb. Next, unscrew the
barb lock fitting off of the sensor sample exhaust output.
5. Discard used sensor.
6. Reconnect the ribbon cable to the top of the new sensor by gently pushing the
cable plug into the sensor socket until the two side ejector locks close.
7. Reconnect the blue sample tube to the center sensor barb and reconnect the
sample exhaust tube to the barb lock fitting.
8. Carefully place the oxygen sensor back down into the case. Make sure that the
sensor is pushed down towards the bottom of the case to prevent the sensor
from interfering with the top circuit board.
9. Close the analyzer (see Opening / Closing the Analyzer) and calibrate (see
Oxygen Calibration).
