Catalyst Monitor Sensor

The catalyst monitor sensors react with the oxygen in the exhaust gasses and generate a voltage based on this reaction as follows:
- A low voltage indicates too much oxygen or a lean condition.
- A high voltage indicates not enough oxygen or a rich condition.

The two catalyst monitor sensors are located in the dual converter Y pipe downstream from the catalyst.
