They are electrical. See if the pin tension on the plug is still nice and tight, as well check fuse number 15 I believe it is. The same as it is for the Alternator. Check to see if it is blown or not and check pin tension to the plug.

3. get an O2 simulator
4. leave the sensor out (do NOT unplug), if you unplug it, the circuit will be incomplete therefore the same O2 CEL code will pop up.

If you decide to use a simulator, I have one for sale.... $20 pick-up
lemme holla bout that simulator
