    2 Oxygen Sensors

    Does anybody know which oxygen sensor is the "main" one. I have an 89 LX-i and it has two sensors. I'm throwing a code 1 which means the main sensor. I can't find anywhere in the shop manuals where it talks about two sensors. I believe there is a green connector for one, and a white connector for the other. Which is which? Thanks.

    my advice is to just change them both beacuse if one throw a singal the other one will soon follow. also check if the engine is running good...give it a nice tune up.
