i checked the code "P0141 Heated Oxygen Sensor Circuit - Bank 1 Sensor 2." what is that? i think it's the o2 sensor, does anyone know which sensor it is? and part #? thanks
in terms of the exhaust system being the stream, you have 2 banks in the stream.
engine being the top of the stream, first bank has 2 or 3 sensors i believe, the second one going toward the back of the vehicle is the one. Odds are, this sensor has gone bad. Just search around, i believe this problem has been covered before, you should be able to get a part number.
no, you're right, that's my mistake. I'm thinking banks in terms of upstream and downstream, it's actually just as you diagrammed it, in terms of cylinder banks.
bank 1 is cyl 1-3 and bank 2 is cyl 4-6, sensor 1 is precat, sensor 2 is post cat. 234-4626 is the one you need.
I had to replace an o2 sensor TODAY on my 2002 Rav4 which only has 35k on the clock
$250 bucks including labor. O2 sensors are not covered under the Toyota/Lexus 8/80k emissions warranty..The dealer also reflashed the ECU as a result of a TSB to re-calibrate the air fuel mixture which was too rich.
I too have the same CEL code. I replaced the correct sensor, disconnected battery and the CEL came back on within a few miles. I have been driving it for a couple weeks with the CEL on and for some odd reason it went off last night, then back on today with same code. I have an appointment with Toyota to try and figure it out.
