Oxygen sensors are installed in the
exhaust stream and measure the amount of oxygen left after combustion has
occurred and translates the information into a voltage signal of between 0
-1 volt. This signal is sent to the vehicles ECU(electronic control unit)
which uses this reading to determine if the engine is running lean, rich or
just right and adjusts the fuel injection system accordingly. Oxygen sensors
are wear items, similar to spark plugs and have a finite life span. Your
vehicles service manual will tell you at what mileage range to change your
oxygen sensors. If a worn out oxygen sensor is not replaced the vehicle’s
performance and fuel economy will be adversely affected. Bad oxygen sensors
may also turn on your “Check Engine” light.
