Denso manufactures and tests this sensor to strict OE tolerances, using a refined zirconia sensing element and an aluminum oxide trap layer to shield the ceramic from silicone and lead contamination. The result is a sensor built for consistent voltage response, improved durability, and a first-time fit on the specified makes and model years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich vehicles does the 234-4012 fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sensor is specified for many American and import models produced in the mid-1990s through early 2000s.
