■
X or XX - These characters identify the location of the O2 sensor in
relation to a cylinder bank. An O2 sensor for cylinder bank 1 is iden-
tified by the designation “1” or "B1"; a sensor for cylinder bank 2 is
identified as “2” or "B2."
”Bank One” indicates the side of the engine where cylinder
number one is located (V-type engines). Bank Two is oppo-
site of Bank One.
■
Y orYY - These characters identity the location of the O2 sensor in rela-
tion to the exhaust system catalyst. An O2 sensor located upstream of
the catalyst is identified by the designation”1” or "S1", a sensor located
downstream of the Catalytic Converter is identified as “2” or "S2."
For example, O2S12 or O2SB1S2 is the designation for the down-
stream O2 sensor for cylinder bank 1.
The Scan Tool does not perform O2 sensor tests, but
retrieves results from the most recently performed O2 sensor
tests from the on-board computer's memory. You may retrieve
O2 sensor test results for only one test of one sensor at any
given time.
