What are the symptoms of a faulty motorcycle oxygen sensor?
1 Answers
Motorcycle oxygen sensor failure symptoms include: decreased engine power and increased fuel consumption. The oxygen sensor is a crucial component that detects oxygen levels in the exhaust and sends signals to the ECU, allowing it to adjust the air-fuel ratio. Low-end motorcycles typically don't have oxygen sensors; only models equipped with fuel-injected engines feature them. Oxygen sensors are installed both before and after the catalytic converter. The front sensor (pre-cat) primarily measures exhaust oxygen content, while the rear sensor (post-cat) monitors whether the catalytic converter is functioning properly.
