MasterI am not sure what your question is? If you replaced your Bank 1 rear oxygen sensor, that sounds fine, do you mean that when you turn on the key no check engine light appears, because that has little to do with any oxygen sensor. Check all your fuses to be safe, however see below:
The check engine light is illuminated and extinguished by the computer.
If you write back with your concern, I will do my best to help you.Flag ThisLike0 -

System operation isn't adversely affected if the monitors fail so the code will set but the check engine light may not come on. It will fail emissions so it needs to be replaced. The tech should have been able to explain that.
