1999 Camry CE 4 cylinders with check engine light on. Took it to
AutoZone and was told the O sensor near the catalytic converter is
bad. Checked around and they do have the best price. $79 dollars for
one with a connector that you have to cut the wires or $129 for a part
with the connecter . I would like to see pictures of where this sensor
is or a diagram. It must be under the car, right?
Thanks for any help.

I found this site very helpful -

Look on pages EM33 and EM114 for oxygen sensor locations.
I also bought a special socket to remove O2 sensors, I think $5, but if
you intend to cut wires anyway, a regular socket should do.

While at Autozone borrow their oxygen sensor socket, free with
deposit. Don't know if they loan out wire cutting pliers etc.
The bottom diagram of Figure 2 here is approx where you'll find your
downstream sensor. Which means you'll need a ramp to raise the car to
work under it. Some people have trouble matching colors and splicing
wires with the universal sensor. Not me. The cheaper version of the
Bosch "universal" sensor is an excellent planar type. Good deal.
