On a 1997 Ford Explorer XLT :
Bank 1 is the passenger side of the engine ( 4.0 liter SOHC , V6 , and 5.0 liter V8 )
Sensor 1 would be close to the engine BEFORE the exhaust enters the catalytic converter
The 1997 Ford Explorer ambient temperature sensor can be found on the bottom of the drivers side mirror. The engine coolant temperature sensor can be found on the front of the engine.
Bank 2 is the drivers side of the engine in your Ford Explorer Sensor 1 is in the exhaust , close to the engine , before the catalytic converter ( upstream sensor )
Bank 1 is the passenger side of the engine in your 1997 Ford Explorer ( V6 engines and V8 engine ) Sensor 1 is before ( upstream ) the exhaust enters the catalytic converter Sensor 2 is after ( downstream ) the exhaust leaves the catalytic converter
Bank 2 is the drivers side of the engine in a Ford Explorer Sensor 1 would be somewhere in the exhaust before the catalytic converter ( upstream )
where is fuel rail pressure sensor on 2000 ford explorer 4.0 located?
Bank 1 sensor 3 should be the one after the catalytic converter.
The Mass Air Flow sensor is located on top of the air filter housing on Ford Explorer.
To the best of my knowledge, the 97 does not have a MAP sensor. It uses a Mass Airflow sensor instead, and that is located in the intake boot either next to the air filter housing, or in the housing itself.
the oxygen sensor or 02 sensor is usually located on you headers it should take a 5/8 wrench it will have two wires coming off of it.
The 1998 Ford Explorer 5.0 liter engine IAT sensor is located between the engine and the air filter box. The IAT sensor will be on the air intake hose.
There is no fuse for the oxygen sensor. The only fuse is for the ECM. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On a 1997 Ford Explorer, there is a 20 amp mini fuse for the Hego system (heated exhaust gas oxygen sensor) in location # 11 in your power distribution box in the engine compartment.
