On a 3 wire heated o2 sensor there are two white wires, and one black wire. The black wire is signal, and the white wires are for the heater. Does the signal wire require special ohm wire? Can I just splice in regular wire to extend it, or do I need something special?
Thanks
Ted

Regular 16 gauge wire will be fine. Just be sure that it is stranded wire with insulation that will take 300 degree F heat.
