    the diagnostic tool from auto zone said that all four sensors needed replacing. so i replaced them with Bosch sensors and the diagnostic tool still says the o2 sensors need replacing. is it the tool, the Bosch sensors or something else. anyone have suggestions. the Bosch sensors don't look a thing like the originals. all this is on a 2000 grand cherokee, 6 cylinder. thanks. oh yeah, the vehicle has run long enough for the engine light to turn off.

    Ive had bad luck with Non OEM O2 sensors. Might want to exchange, and replace with the factory ones?

    Bosch makes great products but Bosch O2 sensors have a reputation for not resolving codes. Try an OEM O2 sensor or clear the code or another O2 sensor. Changed the right sensor in the exhaust stream?
