Oxygen Sensors

ChevyBoi19 · Nov 18, 2024

Hello . I have a 96 chevy 2 door Tahoe.

How many 02 oxygen sensors are on this truck?

I'm confused, I was told by someone that there is 4 on it, I don't see but two.

Can someone help me out without all the guess work plz? and is there a difference in a heated 02 sensor and a non heated one?

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Either it's 4 - 2 pre-cat, 2 post cat
Or it's 3 - 2 pre-cat, 1 post cat.

Heated O2 sensors achieve operating temp sooner vs non-heated.

Welcome to the forum from Oregon.

Like @Marky Dissod said, should be 2 up front of catalytic converter because of one in each side of the "Y" pipe and one sensor after the catalytic converter.

Where are you seeing the 2 that you see? Does the truck still have cats? Heated O2 sensors have a voltage feed that heats the sensor so it starts working faster. The non heated only have 1 wire, the heated have multiple wires.

Get under it and look at the exhaust near the engine. Follow that down and you’ll see one on each side. Your rig may have been modified and you have 2 exhaust pipes without sensors.
