Default 95 3rd O2 sensor - Passenger side

Hi all -

Did a search and came up empty.....

On the 95 models there is a 3rd O2 sensor on the passenger side exhaust pipe. Wanted to know if this could be removed (disconnected) without any hiccups to the PCM ?

Thanks for the advice.

Greg

I have not heard of anyone having problems removing theirs. I removed mine without any codes.

Thanks 95vette. Appreciate the advice. Seems Gm was preparing to convert over to OMBII in 96 I guess and they started inserting the items required in 1995.

have good day

Its just there to check the function of the cat convertor as far as i know. It will set on OBD2 code if you disconnect it, but it wont effect the running of the car in any way, and it wont trigger the Service Engine soon light.

You can disconnect it without any trouble at all.

On OBD2 cars it will trigger a SES lamp. However, I am unsure on OBD1. If you can find one, there are sensors out there that will simulate the function of the post cat oxygen sensor.

I have one on another GM OBD2 car. However, I heard through the rumor mill that the manufacture is in trouble as this is against emission regulations.

Read the post ubove Svoshop, ive given the correct information for his vehicle, no O2 sensor simulator is required, cause it wont set the SES light for an OBD2 code on a 94 or 95 Corvette

If the manufacturer is smart, they will get out of that issue very easily by stating they are intended for "offroad/racetrack use only" and emissions regs wont apply
