    I replaced all my sensors and kept getting the same code. I tried everything. Then I watched your video. You stated exactly what the sensors designation was and I went to look. BAM…. 850.00 later and I could have just replaced the missing 15A fuse. You’re the man!!! Thank you before I would have taken it in somewhere and spent MORE money on it.

      Flex007 Basically it was ok except this video is suppose to be about a freaking p0038 code and NO OTHER CODE! This is a "heater side" issue on the O2 sensor. Yes wiring fuses relays can cause this issue but this can be simple to check just by plugging in a scanner and watching the "data stream" once you see the sensors working by see the numbers moving then you know the wiring and sensor is working. However one thing he didn't mention is if you DON'T have an OEM sensor then your sensor will not give out the right readings back to the computer needed to turn of your code. The other thing he said was that an exhaust leak can throw off the sensor reading which in the case of a leak after the catalytic converter wouldn't effect the downstream sensor. And you can pass inspection if you have all your exhaust pipes from the manifold including the cat. After the cat does not matter for inspection And if you had a leak before the cat your upstream O2 would be throwing a different code

  • @HiddenValleyHomestead

      It doesn’t necessarily work by changing both sensors you might have gotten lucky . The way to do it is checking the ohms resistance or if you have a 40 dollar scanner go into each sensor and check the response signal it will show if you have a lazy sensor or a dead sensor but also a vacuum leak will cause high voltage. Best thing for DIY is check online put your code in and it will show all the possibilities of the code and just go down the list eliminating every one . Worst case is to replace ecu but that rarely happens one more thing check your sensor when buying them for damage there sensitive if dropped can be damaged and don’t buy the sensor that you use your own conector splicing wires that will increase ohms changing everything don’t want that .

The engine light usually stays on but goes off here and there. When it goes off the car runs amazing. I replaced the fuel pump and filter recently. I also hear a low resigatting sound in the lower front of the vehicle during accelerating and a lack of power at higher rpms. What else do I check? The high pressure fuel pump?

    Please explain if you would how an exhaust link underneath your truck or car can affect how the 02 sensors read the ambient air (outside air)(which now has exhaust fumes in it from a leaky exhaust pipe) would alter the downstream sensors ability to send the proper information To the computer Which has to make adjustments according to reading the downstream sensor is getting.
    Remember there's an exhaust leak under there. So the downstream sensor maybe the upstream sensor as well is confused.

      It needs to be diagnosed, but I would check the purge valve located in the engine bay. If the purge valve gets stuck open, it can throw an EVAP code and cause the engine to run Rich. I made a video on how to test it, but basically, if you can blow through it when there is no power, it is stuck open.

    My mechanic has replaced my O2 sensors twice in the last 2 weeks and each time my car gets worse afterwards. It's after the first time he changed them, it started to hard idle and when I went to pull out in first for a second gear from a slowdown more stop the engine would sometimes sputter out and die. Pulling over turning the car off and turning it back on would allow me to get a gear and accelerate again. I'm at a loss for what's wrong, I don't know if they'll be able to figure it out and I don't think replacing the O2 sensors a third time will help. I feel stupid for getting them replaced once when all my issue before was just the check engine light really.

      A bad 02 sensor should not cause the engine to run badly. The engine will not go into what is called a closed loop and be less responsive but should still run OK. I would look for other codes as there likely is another issue.

      I'll go to autoZone and have them look at the codes again. if it's still bad after going to the mechanic on Monday I'm finding someone else :( it's making a tinny rattling noise from the passenger side of the engine now too. All these weird symptoms only started after they messed with the sensors.
      The codes before they changed the sensor the first time were

      A P0420 is a "Catalyst System Low Efficiency," which could be a bad 02 sensor giving bad data but can also be a bad catalytic converter; it needs to be diagnosed to fix the issue.

    Hi I have a weird one for you I have been pulling my hair out about this one and I'm not too sure where to go next besides changing my PCM but one day I got a code bad O2 sensor in my 05 Dodge Stratus 2.4 L dual overhead cam long story short I replaced the O2 sensors both upstream and downstream I cleared the codes started my car and the code came right back but came back as a low voltage for the O2 sensors so I've inspected all the wires and everything everything looks good the weird thing is if I unplugged the O2 sensors and clear the code the light stays off for about 30 miles and then it comes back as a high-voltage code but how is that if they are unplugged have you ever ran into this issue before just curious?

    • @HVAC_Mechanic
      @HVAC_Mechanic  ปีที่แล้ว

      It is hard to say, but a failed PCM is fairly rare. Wiring issues can be a pain and often hard to find. I would check for any exhaust leaks or a clogged catalytic converter. Many techs would swap out the sensors again with Denso sensors.

Who can tell me the reason for high voltage on a 02 sensor I’m talking 3.5 volts in one vehicle it was over 7volts but ran perfect and no codes went thru the drive cycle completely got smogged passing California strict and highest emissions. I suspect a glitch in the ecu software. Something with that much voltage should not be running properly it should be blowing out black smoke destroying everything down the Exaust pipe . Any one ?
