This video goes over how to replace a downstream oxygen sensor (Bank 1 Sensor 2) on a 2014 Ford Focus with a 2.0 motor. This should also be the same process for any (third generation) 2011-2017 Ford Focus with 2.0. An oxygen sensor is used by the engine's computer to determine the correct air to fuel ratio needed so that the engine will run efficiently. There are oxygen sensors before the catalytic converter and sensors after the catalytic converter. The ones before the catalytic converter are called upstream and the ones after the converter are called downstream. This Ford Focus 2.0 has two oxygen sensors,1 before the catalytic converter and 1 after the catalytic converter. This can vary on different models and manufacturers. Some vehicles can have as many as six. You can drive a vehicle with bad O2 sensors for a period of time if you can put up with the poor performance and decreased gas mileage, but over time it will hurt the longevity of your motor and cause failure of your catalytic converter because your motor wasn’t running efficiently as the manufacturer intended. The most common signs of a bad oxygen sensor are a check engine light, decreased fuel economy, hesitation, rough idling, or misfiring.
