Ok as a guess that you have a SUV and you have different air faults. if you are a DYI'er go to an auto parts store and get an error code tool. Harbor freight for $30-50. Hook it to the car and find out which sensor is it calling for. Note, you can reset the check engine light on most tools that are not the cheapest. P1130
Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1)
code P1133 is for a problem with 02 sensor bank one sensor one. this is the left 02 sensor in front of the cat. converter. code P1153 is for a problem with 02 sensor bank 2 sensor 1, which is located on the right side of engine in front of the cat. converter
Sound like either the mechanic didn't plug the sensor in all the way or you got a bad sensor, bank 2 should be the passenger side, sensor 2 is the sensor after the catalytic converter.
Thre is a code P1153 that indicates a bad sensor is bank 2 on the engine, but not a P11538. Who is reading the code and are they using OBDII reader? Can you have it re-read.
P0174 Basically this means that an O2 sensor in bank 2 detected a lean condition (too much oxygen in the exhaust). On V6/V8/V10 engines, Bank 2 is generally the side of the engine that doesn't have cylinder #1. P0140 Basically this means the an O2 sensor in Bank 1 detected a lean condition, same as mentioned above. Bank 1 is the side where cylinder #1 is. In the vast majority of cases, simply cleaning the MAF sensor does the trick. Consult your service manual for it's location if you need help. I find it's best to take it off and spray it with electronics cleaner or brake cleaner. Make sure you are careful not to damage the MAF sensor, and make sure it's dry before reinstalling. P1133 and P1153 indicate that the HO25 Sensor has gone bad. There the O2 sensor to the left and right bank at the exhaust manifold. When the engine first start's the PCM runs on a open loop and ignores the O2 readings till it reaches it's operating temperature. Once the operating temperature has been reached the diagnostic will only run once per ignition cycle and if the PCM detects a lesser then specified value, a DTC of P1133 or P1153 will come up. Once the problem has been repaired, after 3 start cycle will reset the MIL light. If the O2 is just dirty and slow to heat up try cycling the ignition start 3 times and the light should go off if the O2 sensor does not fail. Try cleaning the MAF first and see if the light comes off after a few ignition cycle, If the service light is still on you can always have Auto Zone clear the DTC codes and see if it comes back which then check the left and right bank wire harness to the O2 sensors. Good luck and hope this helps, keep me posted.
P0700 - Transmission Control System Malfunction, clear the code and see if it comes back, all this code is, is the TCM (trans control module) telling the check engine light to come on for a possible trans fault, many times it is a false code and means nothing is wrong unless it has another trans code stored with it like a shift solenoid for instance.
P1153 - Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) Insufficient Switching Bank 2 Sensor 1, You would be pretty safe to assume the O2 sensor for cylinder bank 2 ahead of Cat converter is defective.Bank 2 is the side opposite the bank that #1 cylinder is located in.
p1460 cooling fan circuit,p1153 ho2s insufficient switching bank 2 sensor 1,p1133 insuf. swit. sen. 1 or bank 1 sen. 1,p420 catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 1,p152 o2sen. circuit high volt. bank 2 sen.1
p1133 O2 sensor insufficent switching (pre converter, left bank)
p1153 ) 02 sensor insufficient switching preconverter right bank
P0420) catalyst system efficiency below threshold left bank
P0151) 02 sensor circuit high voltage pre converter right bank
and p1460 unfortunately I don't have handy..... But REALLY sounds like you need to replace the Oxygen sensors in front of the catalitic converters... There is dual exhaust coming from the engine to one muffler in that truck, there are a total of 2 converters and 4 O2 sensors (1 in front of converter and 1 behind it on both of the pipes) Front ones are definetely shot!!!! Be prepared to put the rear ones in shortly after!!!!! they are about $80 canadian each at the jobbers and probably more at the dealer!!!!!
