New ICP Sensor

I need a new ICP sensor. I saw some these on eBay for like 40-50 bucks. Why are these priced so cheap? Has anyone bought one of these? How did it work out? Thanks in advance.

Yep, and they work fine. Just installed one about a month ago.

They are the aftermarket ICP102 you would get from any parts store. They must be direct from china since they are 50% cheaper than at the stores.

If it works for you go for it. I was just raped by the dealer for this very part. 194 after tax and I was on my. No one had the part at the parts houses, so I bit the bullet. Clay and Bob have the sensor for around 140.

I bought one of the eBay ICP sensors back in the spring...it is now leaking oil into the plug just like the stock one was after 205k miles. This eBay one only made it 10k. So, I now have an OEM one from Bob to put in there...

Truck budget is getting low, but I don't want to buy another one of these in 10k miles either. Anyone had one of these that lasted a while? Or is about 10k the life expectancy on these?

My truck seems to chew through the Ford ones, so I bit the bullet and bought the very same ICP sensor empiretc spoke of from O'reilly auto parts. I spent $183 on it, but it's the LAST time I'll have to do that.

If it breaks again, I just have to head down to O'reilly auto, get a new one and call it a day.

Edit: I went through 2 or 3 of them, hence me buying the one from the Auto parts store.

No. The ICP102 is a direct replacement.

The only advantage of getting one from oh-rye-less is the lifetime warranty. I change the alternator every 2 years almost like clockwork.
