Wiring lambda sensors to Dual NTK Lambda to CAN

[NLSX454]

Hi all,

I am wondering if a longer lambda sensor loom extension can be used than what is currently available? I believe the longest off-the-shelf loom extender is 0.55m (1.8 feet). FYI, the NTK lambda sensors I am using are part #57007.

Would it be an issue to add another 1 foot of wire length in a custom loom and also incorporate a bulkhead connector to then connect both lambda sensors to the LTCD-Dual NTK (#61305) which will be inside the vehicle for connection to my CAN Bus?

Thanks,
Neil

I have used extension harnesses for LSU 4.9 from Ballenger Motorsports without issues, This link is to their NTK extensions that may work for you:

Thank you for the link David.

I was also thinking of getting the NTK lambda connector plug kits and wiring up my own extensions, with the addition of a bulkhead connector. Has anyone gone this route?

Unlike the Bosch LSU 4.9 sensors, the NTK sensor do not have a calibration resistor in the connector, this allows for a lot more flexibility in mounting and wiring the units. A number of teams do not use the standard connectors for these sensors, instead replacing them with AS type connectors, either as bulkhead connector or an inline connector.

Excellent, many thanks for the info Stephen.

Just make a male-female extension for whatever sensor you're actually using.

That way there's no messing about changing plugs or buying different sensors.
