An o2 sensor is hooked to your exhaust.....you only have 2 of them....If this is on a car...
Theres 4 of them on my silverado....
With a good scanner...it should tell you which one it is.....and swap it out with a new one....

A "shineing" sound? not sure what that sound is...but if its comeing from the alternator...More than likely....its the bearings in it going bad....Depending on the milage usage etc....(Amps..high rpms)
Maybe needs to be rebuilt or replaced with a new one....
Maybe someone else will chime in to confirm it....
would like to know what the cure was....
