Downstream Oxygen sensor Confusion

I have a 1993 Camry V6 xle. I just replaced the upstream O2 sensor. Now I am trying to replace the downstream one by the cat converter. I went online to try to buy one and there are 4 different one. A 1 wire, a 2 wire, a 3 wire and a 4 wire configuration. Which one will fit , I dont want to buy the wrong one. I'ts bad weather here and I cant lift up the car anytime soon..thanks ..I live in PA

If you have a car that is CA SPEC, then you'd have a total of 3 sensors. If you have a non CA SPEC car, you have only two. The best way for me to assist you is for you to PM me your VIN, that way I can tell you what you do or do not have.

based on info provided by densoaftermarket.com 1993 year of camry V6 (3vz-fe) uses only narrow band type sensors (no AFRs upstream), and the only option for rear o2 sensor is this Denso OEM equivalent: 234-4623 or you could go with OE Universal type (requires splicing).

you can get the Denso OEM sensor from ebay at $80 frees shipping:

or some seller (Auto Parts 123) on amazon sells it at $63:

First off, for safety reasons, I'd remove your VIN from the public posting area.

From what I can tell, it appears that you only have two upstream O2 sensors, Bank 1(near the firewall) and Bank 2 (near the radiator) If you indeed have three, then that would be the one after the CAT, but from what I can tell, you should only have the two.

These are the ones I ordered for my Camry. Mine is a 1996 Camry LE V6 1MZFE. $45. This was the 2 upstream sensors and I think it also fits the downstream sensor. Gary, can you confirm? I also now have a 0420 code with my car so I think I need to check/possibly replace that 3rd sensor.

Amazon Amazon
92-01 Toyota Oxygen Sensor 8946533030 8946506100 2344623 2344622 NEW

Both of my old sensors were 4-wire and had wire lengts of about 12 inches. The replacements had a wire length much longer but also 4-wire.

Those are not the same as a 99 V6, and if you were asking me to confirm yours or if you had two or three sensors, I'd need your VIN. If you do want me to confirm, please PM me your VIN, don't post it publicly.
