Default 1993 one wire O2 sensor question

My wire harness has been chopped and abused, does anyone know what color wires I need for each O2 sensor? And also as far as left/right on my data log, can someone tell me which is passenger/driver side? Left/right confuses me. Is there a diagram out there that might help me?

It shows purple for the RH and a purple with a white tracer for the left. I would think the RT hand is the pass side and the left is the driver.

narrowband O2 sensors all work the same, there is just one single wire that needs to connect to the computer. it doesnt matter if the sensor has 2, 3, or 4 wires on it... Only 1 of them is required for it to function. the other wires are either redundant grounds, or heater circuits (they help it warm up). But there is ALWAYS just ONE single signal wire, you can take or leave the rest of them.


Look in the FSM to see which wire it is at the ECU, check the color of the wire, then connect it to any Narrowband signal wire you want. Sometimes I goto pep boys and just start looking through boxes until I find all their 1 wire O2 sensors, then price check them all, and buy the cheapest one, often $12 or such. And I will use that cheap 1-wire sensor in any engine I want, sometimes 4 cylinder, sometimes 8, whatever.

I got the purple with white tracer on the left bank, but for the life of me, I can't find a solid purple to go to the right. I had a white wire hooked up to it...also is a blue wire in the area for the knock sensor which is correct...where on the computer would this purple wire be going? I could track it from there if I knew.

The diagram looks to show connecter D on the ECM which is the brown one. Pin 22 http://lt1swap.com/pictures/93lt1_1.jpg
