Depends if it's a primary lambda or secondary lambda.

What location on the exhaust are we talking about here and what model ?

The 2nd lambda is really just a cat efficiency check, so wouldn't do too much to fuelling.

If your getting it mapped I wouldn't bother.
When you decat you have to map out that error code anyway.
