Sounds like you need a new 02 sensor. As for the ABS traction light, thats a different problem, and you'll need to scan it with a tool capable of reading brake codes "C" Any desecent shop can do it, they might charge a few bucks, but it will pinpoit what to look at. Bank 2 will be found by finding the #1 spark plug, then going to the opposite head...I think it's the head closest to your firewall. Follow the pipes to the second sensor!
