The procedure for changing a vehicle's engine sensor varies from vehicle to vehicle and from sensor to sensor, as there are different types. There are a large number of questions related to this topic already posted - and answered. Perhaps an "Advanced Searth" with something like "Oxygen sensor, 2004 Mazda Miata" would locate the answer sought. We're here to help, but there are limits to how much we can help that are built into the question, as is the case here.

Location of thermostat sensor to turn on engine cooling fans?
Most vehicles locate that sensor close to the thermostat housing.
Why is the engine temperature light on when the engine is cold?
Likely a faulty coolant temperature sensor. Change the sensor.
Can a faulty speed sensor cause not to change gears?
In some vehicles, yes.
What is Engine code 660?
Engine code 660 can mean different things for different vehicles. In motorcycles, it can mean that a circuit to a light is shut off or there is a bad fuse. In motor vehicles it pertains to the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor or an oxygen sensor.
How do you change speed sensor?
It kind of depends on what type of car/truck you have. Most fwd vehicles have the speed sensor in the transaxle above one of the axles. To change it usually requires removing a bolt and pulling out the sensor. Rwd vehicles either have the sensor in the transmission, transfer case(4x4) or in the rear differential. The replacement procedure is similar.

How do you test a map sensor on a car?
A m.a.p or manifold absolute pressure sensor can be tested with a scan tool on 1996 and later vehicles. This sensor is found only on some vehicles. Others have a m.a.f sensor (mass air flow). These sensors measure air flow before entering the engine and send the info to the pcm (computer). If the m.a.p sensor is faulty you may or may not have a "check engine" light illuminated.
How do you change oxygen sensor in 1992 Toyota Corolla?
How do you change oxygen sensor in 1992 Toyota corolla? Is there a model engine 4A-FE without a oxygen sensor?
How do you know when a crank sensor is bad in a 1988 Mazda 626 and how do you replace it?
Generally when the crank sensor goes out the engine will not start. The sensor on almost all vehicles is located in the front on the engine near the belts.In most cases it is held in place by a bolt.Usually they can be hard to get to.
Why replace the fuel tank pressure sensor?
If it is bad, replacing it will help with the vehicles emissions and put out the check engine light.
How do you replace oil pressure sensor for 2005 Chevy silverado truck?
The process to change the pressure sensor is the same for any engine in the 2005 Silverado, but the location may change between engine types. The sensor should be close to the oil filter. Remove the sensor wire, then screw the sensor out. Screw a new sensor in, then reconnect the wire.
What does the temperature gauge on a car do?
Most vehicles use a temperature sensor and gauge that monitor the engine's coolant temperature. The gauge can either reflect the actual engine temperature (with a needle or a digital reading), or it could display a generalized temperature that informs the operator when the engine is at operating temperature or is dangerously hot. Many older vehicles (made before 1980) also used an engine block temperature sensor. The block sensor was usually impeded in the block and connected a warning light that illuminated when temperatures exceeded a certain amount. Most passenger vehicles did not use a gauge with this type of sensor. Some vehicles, especially those used for commercial and industrial purposes, use an oil temperature sensor. It works very much the same as a coolant sensor and can be placed in the engine, transmission, or both depending on the need. It would be more common for a warning light to be connected to this type of sensor, but there are aftermarket gauges that reflect accurate oil temperature readings.
