It depends on the vehicle. Bank one is what ever side cylinder number one is on.
There are three 02 sensors. The front left sensor is the forward most sensor, on the left bank of the engine. The next is the front right sensor on the right bank, the rear sensor is after the catalytic convertor. see below web site: http://www.courtesyparts.com/A32_O2-sensors.html
should be low on the exhaust, near the exhaust manifold. Near the left or right tires, sometimes, they can be near the the firewall. Bank one on the 4.3L would be the drivers side bank of cylinders. Bank one, sensor one, would be the sensor directly after the exhaust manifold on the drivers side.
where is the bank 1/sensor 2 O2 sensor on a dodge caravan...to the rear of the catalitic converter or to the engine (front) side of the converter?
If the Trooper has the 3.5L v6, there are 4 SO2 sensors. There are two banks right and left, or bank 1 and bank 2 respectively. Then there is a sensor upstream from the catalytic converter on each bank (sensor 1) , and one down stream (sensor 2).Hope this helps/
This is under the intake manifold and the one on the left. There are 2 of them, one on the left side (when looking from the front) is the Bank 2 sensor. Cost is about $170. It takes about 4 hours to replace it.
Before cat on the left(driver) side if it has more than one upstream sensor.Before cat on the left(driver) side if it has more than one upstream sensor.
Bank 1 is always the bank where cylinder No. 1 is, or in this case, the driver's side (left) bank, and Bank 2 is the opposite (right) bank. After the point where the pipes meet, everything is Bank 1. Now, counting O2 sensors. One is located by the left manifold, which is Bank 1, Sensor 1 (scanner shows B1-S1). Moving back, the sensor in front of the catalytic converter after the Y-pipe is Bank 1, Sensor 2. After the Y, it's all Bank 1, but we still count the sensor in the manifold as 1. So now the sensor behind the catalytic converter is Bank 1, Sensor 3 (scanner shows B1-S3). On a dual exhaust system, the banks stay 1 and 2 all the way back. For example, on the same truck with dual exhaust ... Bank 1, Sensor 1 is in the left manifold; Bank 2, Sensor 1 is at the right manifold; Bank 1, Sensor 2 is behind the driver's side converter; and Bank 2, Sensor 2 is behind the passenger side converter. If automotive engineers decide to add more O2 sensors, they will continue the numbering in this fashion.
Bank one is usually the left side of the motor and sensor 2 would be the one past the converter.
Generally Sensor 1 is the one before the Catalyst, and sensor 2 the one after. (IE the first sensor the exhaust comes to.) Also generally Bank one is/are the cylinders on the left (English is read from left to right) when looking at the engine. However this is made hard with front wheel drive cars as the engines are sideways in the engine bay, so look at the engine from the end opposite to the gearbox. On most cars this will be the cylinders at the back, as most cars are designed to be left-hand-drive, with the gear box on the left of the car as you sit in it.
bank one is where the number one cylinder is sensor one is before the cat and sensor two is after the cat
Only one, the Seine. The Right bank is the south bank; on the right looking downstream.
Bank one is simply the side of the engine with the number one cylinder. In this case it is the right side of the engine up against the fire wall. If you go under the vehicle you will see the exhaust coming down from behind the engine. There will be one sensor in front of the cat and one after. The sensor before is called bank 1 sensor 1, the sensor after the cat which you are looking for is called bank 1 sensor 2.
