Is the oxygen sensor checked during an MOT?
The oxygen sensor or lambda sensor if often flagged during the emissions check in an MOT test. As the sensor helps regulate the fuel/air mixture going into the engine, it follows that a faulty lambda sensor is often the cause of emissions that are too high. It's recommended to check for a functioning oxygen sensor, especially prior to an MOT test.
Is a faulty oxygen sensor an MOT failure?
A faulty oxygen sensor in itself should not cause MOT failure as it is not checked as part of MOT. However, a failing sensor can lead to engine performance issues, if these result in emissions issues it is possible your vehicle can fail its MOT.
