An oxygen sensor has nothing to do with the charging system. If the alt is good, chances are the fusible link is bad.

O2 sensor has nothing to do with the charging system. If your alternator isn't charging chances are you have a bad alternator. What is the charging system voltage loaded and unloaded?
