replace them both, if u reset n sends bad code replace otherone 4 real or go 2 a shop n spend 74 - 100 4 diagnostic
When I had that problem on my 1997 buick lesabre, I had to replace the catalyst converter and the 02 sensor on it. It resolved the issue with the code.
The upstream O2 sensor on a 2001 Buick LeSabre is located in the exhaust system, specifically before the catalytic converter and typically mounted on the exhaust manifold or the front pipe. To access it, you may need to raise the vehicle and work underneath, as it is positioned along the exhaust pathway. It usually has a wiring harness connected to it, making it identifiable. Be sure to take necessary safety precautions when working on the vehicle.
On a 2001 Buick LeSabre, there are typically two oxygen (O2) sensors. The upstream O2 sensor is located before the catalytic converter, attached to the exhaust manifold, while the downstream O2 sensor is positioned after the catalytic converter in the exhaust system. These sensors monitor the exhaust gases to help optimize fuel efficiency and emissions. To access them, you'll need to lift the vehicle and may require special tools due to their location.
02 sensor problem
Bank 1 sensor 1 was the upstream 02 sensor located before the catalytic con on my 03.
If it is bad the check engine light will come on and set a code for that particular sensor.
In the exhaust manifold or near the pipe, must raise car to get at it . better to work on when engine is cool,easer to to remove and you won't get burned.use never sieze if using old one again (new ones already have it on ) simply unscrews with wrench, do not force may damage threads
Replace fuel filter and check the 02 sensor if the check engine light is on it's probably the 02 sensor run a diagnostic test to be sure
Check your battery cables. Some computerized vehicles have to be reset. Disconnect the battery for about 5 minutes and then reconnect.
To change the transmission filter on a 2002 Buick LeSabre, you'll typically need around 4 to 6 quarts of transmission fluid to refill the system after the filter change. However, it's advisable to check the owner's manual or consult a repair guide for the specific fluid capacity, as it can vary based on whether you are doing a complete fluid change or just replacing the filter. Always use the recommended type of transmission fluid for your vehicle.
i doubt if you need an 02 sensor. try cleaning your mass air flow sensor with electronics celaner or brake cleaner first also check for vacuum leaks downstream from the maf
The check engine light would illuminate and the code set would help lead you to which sensor is at fault.
