O2 sensor

Post by kkyin »

Any way I can test my O2 sensor without using that SST thing in the manual?
I got a code 24, and I did have acceleration problems (occassional jerking), so I'm suspecting a O2 problem. Want to make sure that it is the problem before buying anything.

I beleive you can check them with a regular voltmeter, not sure. Usually when it throws the code they should be replaced. It would help your miliage to replace them if they haven't been replaced ever anyway. I got mine HERE , 50 bucks each shipped to canada. Plug n play. work fine, came quick.

If you're throwing an O2 code, reset the computer and drive a few more days. If the O2 sensor code comes back again, then definitely replace the appropriate O2 sensor.

a dumb question, is the right side means the front or the back?
