Default Fault code 16538

Hello friends, my cars I got an error code 16538 and went to a different website but did not get it. Both are new sensors .
Are the white wires that are connected to the sensor heater before they start and should they have electricity when opening the switch?

16538/P0154/000340 - Ross-Tech Wiki

Ross tech wiki has good code info. Maybe wiring or connector issue.

Yes, I came to this site, but both the connectors and the wires are healthy. The oxygen sensor is new.

check wiring back to ecu, connector to ecu. Maybe bad ecu. Or maybe bad O2 sensor.

Hello
One question , is it possible to use an oxygen sensor with the code 0258003772 in the audi C5?
I used this sensor code when the car is turned on and cold, I do not have an error code for 10 minutes, but after the warm up, the code 16538 appears.

From this website: https://www.boschautoparts.com/en/au...tID=0258003772


Part number not compatible with 1998 Audi A6

Part Number: 0258003772

Of course, you could have done this research yourself.

Bank 2 is the driver side in the USA, the passenger side in the UK. From the driver seat, it is the side on the left.
