It appears that all that you can test is the resistance across the sensor. Testing across terminals +b and HT at 20 degrees centigrade (68 degrees Fahrenheit) the front sensor (Bank 1 sensor 1) should give a a reading of 5~7 ohms, the rear sensor (bank 1 sensor 2) should return a reading of 11~16 ohms. Readings outside this range suggest replacing the sensor.

It is recommended that you first read about how the O2 sensor works to familiarize yourself with the part. Perform a visual inspection of the sensor, confirm all connections are sound, and there are no cracks or other signs of physical damage to the sensor. Check your fuses to confirm that the O2 sensor is bad. If the fuse is good, you will require a voltmeter and test the sensor.
