Easiest test would be to swap right to left & left to right to see if the output follows.

A properly functioning O2 in closed loop should fluctuate wildly from high to low (.100-.900).

Only in open loop will they read steady as they are still warming up.

Only sensible way to test it.

As stated above you have a bad O2 sensor. Low voltage represents a lean condition while high voltage represents a rich condition. If you are at 950 and not fluctuating then you are dumping a lot of fuel and getting horrible gas mileage not to mention your catalytic convertor is going to become destroyed soon. I recommend you replace both O2 sensors. Reason being you want both sensors reacting/fluctuating at the same rate for the optimal air fuel ratio which affects gas mileage and performance.

Did you swap side to side yet?
a stuck injector could dump fuel and have an O2 reading like that correctly..
Swapping the sensors from side to side gives you a simple free way to check.
