An ohm meter.
I'm assuming you got an O2 sensor code?

Should be close to 0 ohms from one pin to it's corresponding pin on the other end. Make sure it doesn't say "OL", which means open-loop.

I like to flex the wire around a bit while I'm testing it to make sure there's no internal breaks of the copper. Sometimes they will test out fine in one position, bend it a bit, and it has a break in the connection.

Just touch the two meter leads together, what it reads with them together is what it should read on 24" of 16 ga wire. Zero resistance.
