the 1st O2 has to cyclevoltage readings a certain amount of times and if it doesn't then it stores the code tenatively as pending, then eventually a failure. You reset the code it'll come back eventually.

The 1st O2 sensor is used to adjust fuel trim at cruise and idle. The 2nd O2 sensor is used to test the catalytic converters ability to store oxygen or how efficient it is.
