Bank 1 is cylinder 1- drivers side, in forward facing engines.

    This is a four cylinder engine, there are two O2 sensors very close together, both on driver's side. One inside the heat sheild and one about 12" below in the downpipe. How can I tell which one is Bank 1 Sensor 1 ?

SOURCE: o2 sensor location 1997 pontiac grand am 2.4 4 cyl auto trans

BANK 1 SENSOR 1 IS THE ONE IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. BANK 2 SENSOR 2 IS BELOW THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER.

P0171 SHOULD GO AWAY WITH A GOOD O2 SENSOR BUT DO CHECK FOR VACUUM LEAKS TO BE SURE. 3.1/3.4L ENGINES HAVE A BAD DESIGN INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET, THE LEAK OIL, COOLANT, AND AIR.

SOURCE: location of the bank 1 sensor 2 O2 sensor on a 2001 ford escape

B1 means the sensor is located on the same bank of the engine that has the #1 cylinder. B2 is located on the opposite bank.
S1 means the sensor is located BEFORE the catalytic converter
S2 means the sensor is located AFTER the catalytic converter

You didn't say which engine you have, so I've included the diagrams of both 4 cyl and 6 cyl so you can see the banks

2005 Dodge Durango 4.7 giving a P0175 code. Could it be a leaky exhaust manifold?

Did you clean the Throttle body? That is often the cause of a rough idle.

The Fuel Air o2 sensor on the manifold is often hard to reach, but the downstream o2 sensor after the catalytic converter is easier to get to.

Code P0172 indicates Bank 1 of the engine has a rich fuel mixture. P0175 indicates Bank 2 of the engine has a rich fuel mixture. Engine Bank 1 is the same side of the engine as Engine Cylinder 1. Engine Bank 2 is the opposite side of the engine. A firing order and cylinder location diagram may be needed to see which side of the engine is Bank 1 or Bank 2.
P0172 is triggered by the engine bank 1?"upstream" oxygen sensor and P0175 is triggered by the engine bank 2 "upstream" oxygen sensor. The oxygen sensor alerts your system when the condition is too rich meaning there's too much fuel int the exhaust stream or too little oxygen in the exhaust stream. The symptoms and causes will help you determine the exact issue and how to fix it.
Your bank 1 or bank 2 sensors will be referred to as "sensor 1" or "sensor 2". Sensor 1 refers to "upstream" sensors, or the ones near the engine and before the catalytic converter. Sensor 2 is "downstream" or after the converter.

Where are o2 sensors location

One would need the year, make, model, and engine size to tell you exactly where they are and how many.

O2 sensors are always in the exhaust stream, either in the exhaust manifold that is attached to the engine, or in the exhaust piping after the exhaust manifold. Some models have one for each bank of the engine, and some have only one sensor to monitor oxygen content. These engine sensors that the computer uses to "fix" or adjust the air/fuel ratio are called the upstream oxygen sensors. If the car is equipped (as most are today) with an oxygen sensor after the catalytic converter, this is called a downstream oxygen sensor. They are the same and do the same thing, but the downstream sensor is only used to monitor the efficiency of the converter. The upstream sensor(s) are what the computer reads to adjust or "trim" the fuel delivery.

So some older cars have only one o2 sensor. Not far from the engine in the exhaust stream. Some newer cars with dual exhaust (2 converters) may have four o2 sensors. 1 for each bank of the engine and 1 behind each catalytic converter. A 2005 Buick Century with a 3.1L engine, for instance, has only two o2 sensors: one (upstream) in the exhaust down pipe, and one (downstream) just behind the catalytic converter.

Were is the 02 sensor on a kia rio 2004

cars have 2 to 4 sensors in the exhaust system.If it is throwing an 02 sensor could does not mean you have a bad sensor,it means at that sensor it is burning lean or rich.Example if code reads bank 1 sensor 1 fault that is the sensor closest to engine.

What is the best way to remove O2 sensor bank 1 sensor 2?

Here is the low-down on oxygen sensors, and their location designations explained:

Oxygen sensors are screwed into the exhaust system at various points. Some people say that there are 4 oxygen sensors, but technically, that is not correct. Only the front 2 are considered oxygen sensors.

These oxygen sensors are screwed into the exhaust pipe or directly into the exhaust manifold, one on each bank. Because they are in front of the catalytic converter, this is often referred to as 'upstream'.

The other 2 are actually called catalyst monitors. They are oxygen sensors, but they serve a different purpose. They monitor the activities of the catalytic converters, thus the name, catalyst monitors. They are screwed into the exhaust one on each bank, after, or downstream, of the catalytic converters.

On a 4 cyl engine, there are only a total of two such sensors, the one in front of the catalytic converter is the O2 sensor, the one behind the cat is the catalyst monitor.

The location names for them are as follows:
  • On a 4 cyl, the front / upstream is called "bank 1 sensor 1" and the rear / downstream sensor is called "bank 1, sensor 2."

  • On a V6 or V8 engine:

    • the passenger side bank on a forward facing engine, or the bank closest to the firewall on a transverse mounted engine, is bank number 1, so the forward / upstream sensor on that bank would be "bank 1, sensor 1."

    • The driver's side bank (forward facing mount engine), or front bank (transverse engine) would be bank number 2, thus the forward / upstream sensor on that bank would be "bank 2, sensor 1," and the rearmost / downstream sensor on that bank would be "bank 2, sensor 2."

Where is bank1 and bank 2 located on a lincoln LS?

On all cars, the bank 1 is where the first piston is...Your firing order on that car which is the first piston...Buy a chilton or a repair manual for your car and it will tell you which firing order your motor has....Its usually on the right hand side...Passenger side...Rule of thumb if you look at the spark plugs the one closest too you is usually the first piston....Bank 1 is located on the same side as the first piston...I hope this helps...

The bank has to do with which side of the engine. The 'Sensor 1' indicates that it is upstream of the catalytic converter.

O2 sensors on 1998 ford windstar

1998 Ford Truck Windstar 3.8L SFI 6cyl, there are 4 oxygen sensors on the Windstars They are divided into 2 banks of 2. Bank 1 is the for the rear 3 cylinders of the engine - Bank 2 is for the front 3 cylinders. Bank 1 / Sensor 1 (upstream) is located just below, in the pipe, the exhaust manifold on the back of the engine.

REMOVE TIP: you may have to bend part of the transmission heat shield out of the way - be sure to put it back when done.
Bank 1 Sensor 2 (downstream) is located just past the drivers side catalytic converter.
Bank 2 Sensor 1 (upstream) is located just below the exhaust manifold, in the pipe, at the front of the van - access is from the top.
Bank 2 Sensor 2 (downstream) sensor is located just past the passenger side catalytic converter.

NOTES: * Use lots of penetrating oil - allow to soak - to make removal easier and avoid damaging the exhaust pipe

Hope this help; TY for using Fixya (remember rated and comment this).
