Which oxygen sensor is which?

The upstream oxygen sensor is situated before the catalytic converter whereas the downstream oxygen sensor is located after the catalytic converter. The upstream sensor monitors the level of pollutants in the engine’s exhaust and sends this information to the ECU that continuously adjusts the air-fuel ratio.

Are both O2 sensors the same?

Physically, there’s no difference between front and back O2 sensors. They function in the same way, but the vehicle’s computer uses the measurements that they take for different purposes.
