The Oxygen Sensor in Chevrolet HHR vehicles refers to the device that is used to measure the quantities of unburned oxygen in the exhaust as a way of regulating the air-fuel mixture for efficiency in the vehicle's performance and lowered emission. From this, it creates a voltage signal out of the degree of the oxygen concentration and this signal is managed by the engine control computer to control the degree of the fuel injector. This particular feedback circuit helps to make the engine working in a 'closed loop' which in turn increases the efficiency of the catalytic converter. Chevrolet HHR models tend to use Zirconium dioxide oxygen sensors, and can incorporate both the upstream and downstream sensors. The upstream sensor activates when there is need to make adjustments on the air-fuel mixture, while the downstream sensor evaluates the catalytic converter condition. Some of the latest models may have wide-band air/fuel ratio sensors which can measure the air and fuel mixtures in a wider scale than that of a narrow-band sensors. Both can be contaminated and degraded with age which in turn increases emissions with tendencies of aggravating engine performance.
