Note that if the no charge warning lamp is illuminated on the dash, the heater voltage will not be a full 12V. The output (0V referenced) is fed to the [ECU] pin D7 - see the [[Electrical#MJ25_Circuit_Diagrams_.28Fed.29\|Fed O2 Sensor Wiring Diagram]]

 Googling for the 15701 Sensor in the UK seems to go nowhere, but this site: [http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/1/1/554269-premium-oxygen-sensor-by-bosch-part-15701.html Advance Auto Parts] gives a long list of cars that use that particular sensor. Bosch [http://www.bosch-automotive-catalog.com/public/catalog/products have an online parts catalogue]. Using some of those cars suggested above (making sure you tick the "enlarge vehicle fleet to all countries") allows you to search for some of the cars on the list above. Taking say the Isuze Rodeo 2.6 gives part 0258003277 but that's only 340mm according to the Bosch site. Other than that, the plug looks right, and it's 3 wire. The Rodeo is also listed as using 0258005701. This is listed on the Bosch site as a 3 wire, 430mm O2 sensor, with a cross reference part number of 15701 - which is a direct fit as given above. Searching for the 10 digit part number on UK ebay produces a supplier (at a price!) who will supply a genuine 3 wire Bosch part. This seems to work as a direct fit with the correct connector with no extra work needed. Note that their auction page lists this as a 4 wire part (possibly because it's a 4 pin connector), but it's definitely the 3 wire part matching the part number that is supplied.
