Default P0138 Code Diagnostics Help

Sorry about the cross post everyone, my bad....

Ok, great tech support from obvious experts. Bear with me on this since I'm old (enough to know how to set points on a Chevy without a feeler guage! lol)

Have my 98 Accord coupe 4cyl. with the P0138 code. I checked the sensor at the cat and it had about 18 ohms of resistance but NO voltage supplied. So, maybe I'm going to get lucky and not need an o2 sensor. BUT, according to my very imperfect schematics this sensor connects to the ECM. I believe I read somewhere that it's located behind the pass. side kick panel. Since I'm somewhat proficient at electrical, and without first tearing it apart, is that where I can test for output voltage to the sensor? Iffin it's not there, this could get ugly....

BTW I did a visual of the wiring harness around the pass shock tower and there was no obvious wear or damage as I'd read previously here.
