That's right Homie don't be throwing parts at your cars, it's better to spend a little more time testing and doing it correctly, great info. More people need to be watching your channel.
Threw a P0138 on my mom's 2003 Mazda Tribute v6. Ok, replaced the S1B2 sensor with a new NGK unit and a couple weeks later it's throwing same error. Hmm, a 2nd brand new sensor reports same issue. Both of the new sensors were reporting a flat value voltage of 1.275v constant with no fluctuation, so yeah, looks like I have a wiring issue somewhere in that one. Normally, the o2 sensor would swap out and resolve it, but it sucks to be in that 10% of the cases (or lower) where the part itself is not bad, but it's an adjacent error. Now I have to track down where TF the bad wiring is. Thanks for sharing. Good instructive video for others.
AWESOME vid my brother, anyone can change parts, In Mechatronics you always have two breeds "Real Mechanics" who diagnose and find the source of the problem and then the "Parts Changers" who never fix the problem they just keep changing out parts . You'll find plenty of the latter at Dealerships because it's not their money , it's yours .
Good find man! I have a similar issue and thru a cat code. One of my O2 connectors doesn't want to "snap" together like the other ones. Then I noticed my sensor voltage was way low on the bank 2 sensor 1 upstream kind of cutting in and out, so I removed the whole wiring harness and now I'm swapping out the connector entirely. I tried a zip tie to hold it together tight but it didnt help any. Actually that made it worse. I'm trying to figure out how to take the connector apart, but I may just splice it and solder it.
Just a technical question here, you said that a way to test the wiring loom from the sensor back to the ecu was disconnecting the sensor and you should have 400 450 mv you had that reading but the wiring was damaged! 🙄🤔 I wonder if this contradict what you said about unplugging the sensor to check the wiring back to the ecu? 😮
@HomieHektor QUESTION. both O2 sensor are 4 wire. on downstream sensor at vehicle wiring harness (with multi-meter) two wires have 3V each, one wire has 12V and one wire gives ground. on upstream sensor (closest to engine, before cat), two wires read 3V each, one wire has 12V, and 4th wire gives no reading ground or voltage. should it read ground?
Good video clear instructions am thinking you loving that 3.9 engine, Ha!, did you see the wires damaged or did you have to remove the plastic conduit to notice bad wire?
Bro what kind of a cam are you using ?? Like what's you setup because if it's off a mobile device bro your doing a fantastic job and that's coming from a videographer/photographer of 21 years
I appreciate the video and showing how because i have to tools and have de pinned stubut generally i can see the lock but was just guessing but i got it now im just trying to fix my cheap sensor that the wire pulled out of
I have the same code, my vehicle is a 2011 Honda CR V. I replaced both oxygen sensors and I still get the code. So I'm thinking it's the wiring coming from the vehicle. problem is that the wiring coming from the vehicle looks very short and goes into another collection of harnesses and I can't see where it goes from there, it's actually the AF sensor which is easy to get to it's under the hood but past that it looks like it's going to be a pain in the ass just trying to find where it goes. Where does that wire lead to? how would you recommend I proceed? I just think it's going to be hard to have a comfortable reach for it whether I'm above the car or below it Thanks for any help you can give and thank you for your time
I have no cats on my car and my rear 02s are shut off. Just recently I got this code after a huge rainstorm, is it possible rain damaged it? I checked the wiring and all wiring to that sensor is clean and put together.
Great video amazing What if one of those te connections you pulled out the socket had snapped would this be a issues even if the wire was fine I’m having issues with camshaft sensor and lambda sensor but all changed and still the issue I ask this question because in the same engine I had a broken terminal that was knocking me from auto the manual on the gear box but no codes came up
Same problem my o2 sensor connector part wires where cut sumone try to put it back together using black tape and has oil and damage wires. Going to the junk yard to pull a good connector to replace my damage ones.
Bro I replace my 02 sensor for p0133 on a 04 Honda CR-V like 5-6 times and the mechanic wants me to get the original from the dealership. That’s $500 for the downstream...... Ima take a look at the wiring from the vehicle than. *someone had stole my whole cat and both 02 sensors which lead me to the whole issue*
Well first off they wont come apart until you have sore fingertips. Next you gotta jab yourself at least twice with whatever poking tool youre trying to stick in the connector. Then after you throw a few 20 curse words at it and wish that it goes to hell where its maker is from, only then will the connectors come out.. after you say fuck it and cut all the wires and fiddle with it for 20 mins and completely bent and boogerd two other pins you werent even trying to remove... Hope that helps, works every time...
I have a 2013 Silverado 2500 with 6.0. I have O2 codes. When I unplugged my sensor the voltage went to 1890mv. I measured with a meter and got same thing. I can take a test light to ground and pull it down to 0mv. Also I measured the voltage on the heater circuit and I got battery voltage on 1 wire to ground and 3.20v on the other wire to ground. When I measure with my meter from 1 wire to the other I get like 9.5v. What do you guys think could be causing this. I’ve checked a lot of things and I’m thinking my pcm is bad. Also that 3.20v is on the ground wire of heater circuit. Is that a bias voltage. It’s KOEO when I’m taking these measurements.
A year later.. yea the only thing that could possibly doing that is the ecm. The wiring goes straight to it from o2's.. unless the wires were tapped into by somebody for some reason, after market something maybe.. but if the line is has 9v on it thats not good, 4.5v absolute max..
@@Z-Ack thanks for answering my question. I later found out that 1890mv is the new bias voltage on the O2 sensor. It used to be 450mv so that’s what I was expecting to see. The engine ended up blowing up in the truck though and I never figured out what was going on with it. Why the heater circuit had that bias voltage I don’t know.
Nice guys at gm and other auto mfgs,, creating a code so you may find the cheap wax insulation falling off the O2 sensor instead of using a high quality silicon insulation resistant to high heat and oil contamination
Good information of how to remove those pins from o2 sensor, yo no sabia, trate una vez y no pude, una pregunta? No hay nada mas que remover para sacar los pines? Como en otros connectors? Parece que llaman brake connector, gracias hektor, un saludo desde Ontario California #hookituphomie
I got 2 sensors., im getting a p2238 which is b1s1 low voltage.. but b1s1 reads 3.5v and b1s2 reads 0... flat.. which i dont fuckin get cuz the ecu is either in derp mode or somethings just crossed in its gizzard somewhere... not a clue...

David Bautista Thanks, appreciate your kind words 🙏🏼
3 years later still a good vid
You're the man Hector. It's funny that when I get problems that I end on videos like this and learn things I never expected to learn. Thanks!
One month and approximately 48 hours of watch time, I get my eureka moment to solve my P0274 that threw my P0300 code. You are the F ing man HEKTOR!
Great diagnosis. Like diagnosis and electrical videos. Very informative..
Finally, where have you been? I've watched videos from others, they made no damn sense.You make 02 sensor repair easy and simple. Thank you.
I’ve been home, mostly 😁

good advice. thats what makes electrical diag tricky sometimes.
Is this technique better than soldering? What are your thoughts Hector?
Which diagnostic tool are you using. This was a helpful video.
You have to love RUclips and channels like scannerdanner who have great information. Nice visual on the wires. Good find and fix.
wyattoneable Yeah it's a New School. You can find everything on RUclips. 🙌🏼

Very helpful and smart background music.
you got a thumbs up and subscribe from me real quick. one best videos Ive seen about this.

Good job very descriptive work better than a shop..Thanks for the video...Keep it up

So before you unwrapped the wires could you tell something was going on with that section of harness?
Great video bro, take care & blessings 🤗
That's awesome man!! Thanks for the help.
Most excellent find
Good video clear instructions am thinking you loving that 3.9 engine, Ha!, did you see the wires damaged or did you have to remove the plastic conduit to notice bad wire?
Great video.
I'm not getting any volts in EFI3 fuse. The fuse is good
Where do I start from?
Hi, would it not have been easier to cut the wire, put on the heat shrink, then solder wires.
What about when its reading to high voltage?
Bro what kind of a cam are you using ?? Like what's you setup because if it's off a mobile device bro your doing a fantastic job and that's coming from a videographer/photographer of 21 years

Thanks for any help you can give and thank you for your time
Try to find a wiring diagram most of the time are free so you get a pretty good idea of where the wires are going and start testing points good luck 👌
I have no cats on my car and my rear 02s are shut off. Just recently I got this code after a huge rainstorm, is it possible rain damaged it? I checked the wiring and all wiring to that sensor is clean and put together.
Got any videos on testing 5 wire o2 sensors? I can't seem to find anything.
What laptop scanner are you using?
Good job Bigg Dogg
Can you put a link for the pins you use to take out the wire from the connector?
What kind of scanner do you have bro.
Great video amazing
What if one of those te connections you pulled out the socket had snapped would this be a issues even if the wire was fine
I’m having issues with camshaft sensor and lambda sensor but all changed and still the issue
I ask this question because in the same engine I had a broken terminal that was knocking me from auto the manual on the gear box but no codes came up
Pretty good camera work actually. I’ve had as much success as well as crap results pulling those wires/pins out of electrical receptacles.
Same problem my o2 sensor connector part wires where cut sumone try to put it back together using black tape and has oil and damage wires. Going to the junk yard to pull a good connector to replace my damage ones.
Hektor what’s up great tip!!! Waiting for a new video!!!
Excellent!
have a toyota camry 09 my downstream 02 sensor stays reading .01 volts plugged and unplugged what should I be looking at 😅
Thankyou Sir. Great detail.
Thank you for your help
VERY GOOD VIDEO TOP RESULTS
whre did u get the t pin? i need somethng to diagnose some gremlins in my ele system on my 2018 mustang..
Sewing section Walmart 😊
Damn you save my 150$ thank you
Alright alright alriiiight!
Bro I replace my 02 sensor for p0133 on a 04 Honda CR-V like 5-6 times and the mechanic wants me to get the original from the dealership. That’s $500 for the downstream......
Ima take a look at the wiring from the vehicle than.
*someone had stole my whole cat and both 02 sensors which lead me to the whole issue*
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
My 02 Oxygen sensor isn’t connected properly and it showing camshaft problem is this correct?
P3008 & P0652
Cam shaft isn’t related to ur emissions and fuel system it’s basically the long shaft that rotates and gets ur engine to run
Hey.....
Where's your shop?
I have that problem...
O2 sensor 0.0v
YES CAN YOU RECOMMEND A SHOP IN MESA AZ. BERNIE
How do you extract those wires off the connector?
Well first off they wont come apart until you have sore fingertips. Next you gotta jab yourself at least twice with whatever poking tool youre trying to stick in the connector. Then after you throw a few 20 curse words at it and wish that it goes to hell where its maker is from, only then will the connectors come out.. after you say fuck it and cut all the wires and fiddle with it for 20 mins and completely bent and boogerd two other pins you werent even trying to remove...

how to delect senor

i would've put an 02 sensor in car, many of us would have, no lie.
Dexter Dexcool I've worked with many techs, and I know for a fact that all of them would have thrown an oxygen sensor in the car.

Fking wasted time. Just buy a damn new sensor.
hey Heckor ah que scotty kilmer lol.
español por favor no entiendo nada
I got 2 sensors., im getting a p2238 which is b1s1 low voltage.. but b1s1 reads 3.5v and b1s2 reads 0... flat.. which i dont fuckin get cuz the ecu is either in derp mode or somethings just crossed in its gizzard somewhere... not a clue...
annoying music
That car is a pos
Maybe 😎
