Default Will millivolts tell if an O2 sensor is dead?

Hey guys-

I can read the millivolts coming across my O2's with my Interceptor guage...

Is it possible to tell if the things are dead/alive via the readings?

Thanks

Jeff

yes, basically when in closed loop the o2 mv should bounce from 100mv to 800mv and at wot it should level off somewhere around 700-900mv

casey, that means they are dead or you have a bad connection.
