I tried a Bosch universal post-cat sensor and it didn't work. I even soldered the wires. After the first failed attempt, I took it back out and switched the heater wires thinking maybe they were crossed since both were the same color. Kept getting the o2 sensor heater code. Maybe it works on '95's, but it definitely didn't work on my '97. Bought two new sensors, light went out, car ran perfect and fuel economy improved. It costs about 200 bucks for a pair of Bosch OEM sensors, but they last a long time and will give you piece of mind.
