Bosch 15716 oxygen sensor for the 2001-2006 Ford Escape V6 3.0L and other vehicles measures the oxygen left in the exhaust. It sends air-fuel-ratio readings to the ECU, which uses them to keep combustion steady and emissions down.
- Narrow-band switching design with advanced ceramic elements and optimized heater control
- Integrated heater element brings the sensor to operating temperature in under 10 seconds
- Withstands exhaust streams up to 1,880°F
- Metal housing and TSP coating resist vibration, corrosion and contamination

A worn Bosch O2 sensor can show up as a check engine light, a rough idle or lower fuel economy. Before you replace the sensor, rule out an exhaust leak near it and a damaged harness, because either one can also trip the check engine light.
Fits
This sensor also fits the 1990 Ford F-150 6-cylinder 4.9L and the 1991-1993 F-150 V8 5.0L or 5.8L. As an oxygen sensor for the 1997-1998 Ford Expedition V8 4.6L, it is sold one per listing, and the 1997-1998 Expedition V8 4.6L takes two.
