does it tell u the exact sensor or the fault with the car

I have the extra software that gives you the likely reason, and solution. Without that just enter the code it gives you on Bing search engine. You will find much information there. Much more then the software. I think it's the best way to go.

Sometimes it will tell you or lead you to the problem. Sometimes your check engine lite will come on and go out, this you will need a little more knowledge of what's going on. For instants , engine does not reach operating temp. In time witch is preset in the ECM. A lot of people change the temp sensor, but a lot of time it's the thermostat that is no longer accurate.

If you purchase the additional software it shows detailed codes like any other traditional scanner

through the datastream function It gives you detail of each sensor so through process of elimination you can generally find the sensor that is out. It will display the code as well, just search in your browser for whatever code it pops up there is generally a DIY you can find online for each code.

No, it will tell you the error code, and if it supports your car for more than simple OBDII, will allow you to see various PCM inputs in real time. You will have to know (or learn) what sensors are applicable to the specific error code. The web is great for learning the codes, just be willing to read a lot.

Check the fuse also sometimes they go out for the sensors! you could also put a voltmeter on the wiring to make sure there is a 12 volt signal at the sensor you have to have the ignition to the on mode (engine off) i can't remember which one is supposed to have the signal but one of them does.if the fuse is good and you still don't get a signal at the sensor you probably have a short in the wiring somewhere. Also the OBD computer codes need to be cleared and the car has to be driven so that every thing can re calibrate.

I don't think so. It only reads errors that the on-board computer returns. It wouldn't tell you if a coil was shorting, or any other mechanical problems causing a misfire like a bad spark plug or a dirty fuel injector.

The sensor is located on the top of the fuel injector. Check the number to confirm it is the same

Richard, You have to do some research about the sensors that your car is using, in my case (Mazda Tribute 04) uses one upstream and one down with the same Bosh Sensor model.

If one of sensor run off battery, console will alert you by a text message and shows a icon on the LCD screen, if one sensor lost communication or not work, it will not affect entire system, all other sensors and console still work as normal.

It's an OBD2 scanner, should be compatible with all cars built since 1996. Once you get the code then just Google the error code to get the full details.

I had the same error codes and after trying a horde of sensors from Autozone, nothing worked, moreover they were expensive. This was the one I used to get the CEL off and the car is running fine.

Unfortunately no.....the scanner just access the car's computer to tell you what it "sees" through the sensors that are placed in various parts of the engine, transmission, and body. Anything beyond the sensors will not be detected. If there is a short, open circuit, or other malfunction that doesn't affect a sensor then the computer will not detect it and the scanner can't report it.

It has been awhile but I am fairly certain that all 4 sensors are the same so should work just fine. After I installed mine, drove around and the check engine light went out on its own. Joe

I'm not Sure but there are 4 sensors maybe it isn't in the place where the effected sensor is double check the installation/wiring good luck !!!!!!!!!!!!

I am mechanic and i dont see that is a air fuel sensor, if your car use air fuel ratio, it is not posible to chang for a second sensor, because the second is a oxigen sensor and work very different, you can not change.

Just because you have an o2 sensor code it does not always mean the sensor is bad. You may have a problem with the wiring or an exhaust leak

The battery in the sensor last about 5 years. If your car is about 5 years old and you plan on keeping it, order all four sensors. You car should tell you on you dashboard information screen. It will not display a pressure for the sensors that are bad.

I don't know but here is my story, I bought it for my Ford 2003 because it was always giving a faulty sensor signal for tire pressure, but although it haven't gave me any further problems on the tire the car system is not able to read this sensor its like it do not accept it. I have to confess that I haven't gone to the ford dealer to make a reset since there is only one in PR and it is a nightmare but I had no more problems only the tire pressure message hope this can help

My '02 4Runner was throwing the same code. Not sure of the Camry's setup but I replaced both my upstream and downstream o2 sensors since they were way over due and it cleared the code. I would definitely start with the o2's since they're a lot cheaper than a new cat and see if this fixes it.
