Practice question
An oxygen sensor waveform shows a signal that is stuck at 0.2V and does not oscillate. What does this indicate?

- The engine is running perfectly stoichiometric
- The catalytic converter is absorbing all oxygen before the sensor
- The EGR valve is stuck open diluting the exhaust
Answer: A — The sensor is reading a continuously lean mixture, possibly due to a vacuum leak or failed sensor
