What is a HEGO in a Ford Taurus?

HEGO stands for heated oxygen sensor.


Were is the hego sensor and what does hego mean?

The HEGO sensor, or Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen sensor, is typically located in the exhaust system of a vehicle, often before and after the catalytic converter. Its primary function is to measure the level of oxygen in the exhaust gases, helping the engine control unit (ECU) optimize the air-fuel mixture for efficient combustion and reduced emissions. The "heated" aspect refers to its built-in heater, which ensures that the sensor reaches its operating temperature quickly, improving response time and accuracy.

Where is the hego sensor locate?

The hego sensor, or heated exhaust gas oxygen sensor, is typically located in the exhaust system of a vehicle. It is usually positioned before and/or after the catalytic converter to monitor the oxygen content in the exhaust gases. This information helps the engine control unit (ECU) manage fuel injection and maintain optimal air-fuel ratios for efficient combustion and emissions control.

Where is the hego location?

The term "hego location" is not widely recognized, and it may refer to a specific place or concept not well-documented. If you meant "hego" in a different context, such as in a particular field or region, please provide more details. Otherwise, it might be a typo or a misunderstanding of a term.


Why does check engine light stays on 1999 4.0 ranger replaced right bank sensor?

In order to completely answer this question you would need to provide some additional information. Do you know what code(s) were in the system prior to the sensor being replaced? Was it a hego (oxygen) sensor or cat monitor sensor that was replaced. In most cases a hego sensor will not be the culprit. These sensors usually get replaced mistakenly because there is a rich or lean code for that bank (side of engine). A rich condition could be caused by a leaking fuel injector and a lean condition could be caused by a vacuum leak or a stuck closed injector. Hego sensors do go bad. If they fail to read the oxygen content in the exhaust it will through the light on. The other type of sensor failure is in the sensor heater circuit. The sensor has a built in heater that runs on 12 volts. It heats the sensor for proper operation. So again, you would need to provide more info. The dealer would be able to install a computer with software called IDS. They can monitor the fuel trims and perform certain test to determine the problem. Good luck :o)

1997 Ford Explorer where is the oxygen sensor fuse located?

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.

How do you fix check engine light with code 41 C no hego switch detected on a 1991 mercury tracer when the O2 sensor has been replaced and the light always comes on after about 10 minutes of driving?

You buy a new car


What is the definition of Trouble Code P2195?

A HEGO sensor indicating lean at the end of a test is trying to correct for an over-rich condition. The test fails when the fuel control system no longer detects switching for a calibrated amount of time.
