Bank 2 (sensor 1) will be upstream meaning the sensor closest to the engine on that bank... sensor 2 will always be behind / after the catalytic converter.

Here is where bank 2 sensor 1 is located. Sensor 1 is located upstream top of the exhaust manifold sensor 2 is after the pre-cat the photos not exactly your vehicle but very similar. NO, wires inside the car. The harnesses and connectors are under the hood.

Most likely it is your SENDING UNIT. If your light comes on due to low pressure, it is usually way too late. They come on at around 5 psi, and at that low pressure your engine would be knocking. If you can, check the pressure with a manual gauge. If its good, go ahead and change out the sending unit. Regards

So many incorrect answers: On the 3.8 engine, here are the correct locations of the O2 sensors: Bank 2, Sensor 1 (upstream) is by the radiator. Bank 2, Sensor 2 (downstream) is by the radiator and by the catalytic converter. Bank 1, Sensor 1 (upstream) is by the firewall. Bank 1, Sensor 2 (downstream) is by firewall and by the catalytic converter ( a bitc...to get to) Remember there are 2 catalytic converters. Buy them on eBay. Much cheaper.
