Oxygen sensor or lambda

Any changes in the sensor output will be ignored in this state. It tells the computer if the fuel mixture is burning rich(less oxygen) or lean (more oxygen). The lambda sensor is also referred to as the Oxygen (O) sensor plays a very important role in the control of exhaust emissions on a catalytic equipped vehicle.

Exhaust Gas Oxygen (HEGO) sensor and plays a very important role in control of exhaust emissions on a catalytic equipped vehicle. HEGO) sensor and plays a very important role in control of exhaust emissions on a catalytic equipped vehicle.

The industry usage of the two terms tends to depend on the operation band of the sensor. O2 sensors tend to be narrower than the AFR or Lambda sensors.

There are two different types of oxygen sensors that differ in the output signal. SensorsAn oxygen sensor produces an electric voltage from the different levels of oxygen present in the air and the exhaust gas. Vedis II had a PID that gave the air-fuel ratio sensor as Lambda. This badly contaminated oxygen sensor produces a biased signal that causes a rich condition after the engine enters closed-loop operation. To be sure of fitting the correct replacement oxygen sensor it is good to have an understanding of the different types. A selection of oxygen sensors (or Lambda Probes) for most Mercedes Models. Since 2003 PLX Widebands have pioneered in wideband oxygen sensor technology and internal combustion engine tuning. Another symptom of a potential exhaust leak is a EmissionRepairFacility. Oxygen sensors (O sensor or Lambda sensor) have been around for a long time now and were first introduced on vehicles employing an engine management system and a three-way catalytic converter.
