Bank One and Bank Two are usually a standard layout. Look at the engine and stand with the belts and pulleys nearest to you. You will probably be standing in front of the vehicle looking towards the rear of the car. Bank One is the Left side of the engine. Bank Two is the Right side of the engine. Cylinder One will be the cylinder on the Left (Bank One), and nearest to you. Please use the attached image for reference. The front of the engine is also the front of the vehicle.

SOURCE: How about when u have 2 catalytic converters in the same bank 1.?

If you have more than 60K miles start by replacing the Oxygen sensor(s) that is(are) installed after the catalytic converter(s). 
P0421: Warm up catalyst efficiency below threshold. This code means that the computer is detecting the catalyst not warming up to full function quickly enough based on information from the post cat O2 sensor. 

Good luck and hope this helps.

SOURCE: location of oxygen sensor bank 2 sensor 2 for gmc sierra 1500 v8

Bank 2 is the bank that is farther back than the other when looking at eng from the front you will see that one cyl head is farther forward (closer to radiator than the other. this is #1 Bank) #2 is the opposite and sensor #2 is the one after the Catyliac Convertor towards the muffler. #1 sensor is between head and Cat.

Where is the p0054 heater resistance bank1,sensor2 located at

This is referring to the O2 sensors in the exhaust system. I am assuming your engine is a V6 or a V8. I don't know what your vehicle is so this description is a basic one.
Stand in front of the vehicle. Find the belts and pulley wheels on the end of the engine. Stand with them nearest to you. Bank One is the Left hand side of the engine, Bank Two is the Right hand side.
There will be Two O2 sensors in each exhaust system fitted. Usually One left side and one right side on a V engine. Sensor One is before the catalytic converter and Sensor Two is after the catalytic converter.
You will need to safely get under the vehicle to find Sensor Two. Follow the exhaust system down from the engine to where it turns under the vehicle. It will be located after a wider section of exhaust. Looking towards the back of the vehicle, It will be on the left side underneath the vehicle. I have added an image as a rough guide for what to look for.
Some sensors can be removed with a spanner, (wrench), but others need a specialist socket to make access easier.

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...

Need to know were the bank one , sencer one is on my buick century 2000 v6

Oxygen sensors are always numbered like this:
Bank 1 sensor 1
Bank 2 sensor 1
Bank 1 sensor 2
Bank 2 sensor 2

Some manufacturers use a kind of shorthand that reads different, but means the same thing:
Sensor 1/1 or O2s 1/1
Sensor 2/1 or O2s 2/1
Sensor 1/2 or O2s 1/2
Sensor 2/2 or O2s 2/2

Bank 1 is always the side of the engine where cylinder number 1 is located and, of coarse, Bank 2 is the opposite side.
On a 4 cylinder engine, there is only 1 bank and it is always referred to as Bank 1.

Sensor 1 is always the upstream sensor (The one located BEFORE the catalytic converter)
Sensor 2 is always the downstream sensor (the one that is located AFTER the catalytic converter.

Hope helps (remember to rate this).

Need to pass emissions test, dianostic test - Catalyst efficiency blow threshold (bank 1) tried to order part - now I need to know if it pre or post, left or right Oxygen sensor, can it be determined by...

Yes it can be determined by the DTC (Data Trouble code). If the DTC is P0420 (catalyst system efficiency below threshold Bank-1) then the side of the engine with the #1 spark plug and cylinder is always Bank-1, and the O2 sensor that monitors the catalyst efficiency is usually after or (post) of the catalytic converter.

The #1 cylinder is located at the front spark plug on the right or the passenger side of the vehicle, so Bank-1 is on the right side of the vehicle, and the O2 sensor that monitors the catalyst efficiency should be located after or (post) of the catalytic converter. It would be the post right O2 sensor.

There is also the possibility that the catalytic converter is actually starting to fail, and if changing the O2 sensor and clearing the DTC does not solve the problem them the catalytic converter is most likely faulty.

Most GM engines have #1 cylinder located on the left bank, (or Driver's Side) of the engine,

So, the answer to your question would be that you are looking for the sensor located before the catalytic converter on the right (or Passenger Side) of the truck.

How do I fix a bank2, 02 sensor?

just a quick note: bank 2 is LEFT side (drivers) on a rear wheel drive vehicle ,on front wheel drive vehicles it would be the front side when looking down from the front of the vehicle ,Sensor 2 is after the cat converter! if you replace that sensor, clear the codes or have someone clear them for you and you should be all set.
the 2 of bank 2 is the 2nd oxygen sensor that is located after the catalytic converter.usually closer to the tailend of the header pipe.
The sensor I believe you are looking for is in the exhaust pipe or exhaust manifold, usually the right bank which is on the right side of the car (driver is left), or close to the firewall if engine is mounted sideways. Some cars are equipped with a sensor behind the catalytic converter that tells the computer the HEALTH of the converter only. It has nothing to do with running of the engine per say.
Bank 1 is which ever side has cylinder 1. It could be left or right. Bank 2 would be the other side. Bank 1 sensor 1 would be before the catalytic converter. Bank 1 sensor 2 would be after the converter. The same applies with bank 2.

I need to know the location of sensor 2 bank 2 on a 2001 maxima

this sensor would be in the right bank as you face the ngine from under the hood, it is the sensor before the catalytic converter in the exhaust pipe, u will need a 7/8" wrench or special O2 sensor socket to replace it, the tool type depends on how hard it is to remove, spray the threads with WD 40 before trying to remove. go to the link to see the oreintation of your engines cylinder banks, bank 2 has cylinder numbers 2, 4 ,6 in it.
