The Oxygen Sensor in GMC Canyon vehicles is necessary for the proper measurement of the air/fuel mixture of the engine exhaust to accomplish optimal performance and emissions. Oxygen remaining unburned is sensed and the detected amount is compared against the ambient level to create a voltage signal that directs the operation of the engine control computer towards the right mixture. Original Equipment GMC Canyon Oxygen Sensors commonly include zirconium dioxide sensing element with platinum layer, enshrouded in ceramic and encased in steel. These sensors employ response temperature and have a heating component for greater reaction rates. Late model Canyon vehicles have a minimum of two oxygen sensors before the catalytic converter and after it to feed the fuel management system. The first sensor is an upstream sensor the second sensor is a downstream sensor that functions to assess the working efficiency of the catalytic converter. Sensors get deteriorated over time or due to contamination and this affects the efficiency of the engine that emits high amounts of fuel. Newer vehicles may use air/fuel ratio sensors instead of the oxygen sensors which enable wider range of accurate measurements. The oxygen sensor is among the vehicle's vital parts that require consistent upkeep and checking of its functionality to enhance the performance as well as the emission quota of the vehicle.
