1 Answers
The reasons why the front oxygen sensor is prone to damage are: 1. Poor fuel quality; 2. Spark plug failure; 3. Damaged catalytic converter. The impacts of a damaged front oxygen sensor include: 1. Excessive exhaust emissions; 2. Deterioration of engine performance; 3. Engine stalling at idle; 4. Inaccurate engine operation and reduced power; 5. The engine control unit (ECU) being unable to accurately assess the air-fuel mixture condition; 6. Affecting the normal operation of the catalytic converter. The front oxygen sensor is a critical feedback sensor in the electronic fuel injection engine control system. It is a key component for controlling vehicle exhaust emissions, reducing environmental pollution, and improving fuel combustion quality in the engine. It is installed on the engine exhaust pipe.
