O2 sensor voltage change

Hi all,
does anybody know if it is normal for a pre-cat O2 sensor to have the voltage fluctuate from around 0.3-0.7V whilst idling?
Cheers
It is quite normal and a sign that everything is working when the lambda signal switches either side of stioch ( approx 0.5v ) with regular frequency. ie a few times a seconddoes anybody know if it is normal for a pre-cat O2 sensor to have the voltage fluctuate from around 0.3-0.7V whilst idling?
Cheers

The average those values is .5v which is stoichiometric. Which is what you would expect. narrow band sensors dont tend to really output .5 volts, they just fluctuate (or 'cross' ) the midpoint rapidly which indicates lamda.does anybody know if it is normal for a pre-cat O2 sensor to have the voltage fluctuate from around 0.3-0.7V whilst idling?
