A direct connect oxygen sensor assembly is provided for measuring the proportion of oxygen in a fluid stream, and transmit signals indicative thereof to a controller. The assembly includes an oxygen sensor with a housing having an oxygen-sensing element protruding from one end thereof, and a first electrical terminal positioned at an opposing end of the sensor housing. An electrical conductor electrically couples the oxygen-sensing element to the first electrical terminal. The oxygen sensor assembly also includes a connector assembly with a housing having one or more lead wires, which are directly connected to the controller, projecting therefrom. A second electrical terminal is mounted to the connector housing, and electrically connected to the lead wires. The second electrical terminal is designed to mate with and electrically connect to the first electrical terminal. The connector housing is fabricated from a material with a working temperature of at least 200 degrees Celsius.
