SOURCE: Fault code P0133 can't pass inspection.

This code does not always mean the O2 sensor is low, but if u want to replace it here is the info to do that and the part number.

The sensor you want is the one in the exhaust pipe of the engine cylinder bank that has #1 cylinder in it, as you face the engine with the hood open the cylinder bank u want is the rear bank, u will need to jack the car up and get under it to remove the sensor, u may also need a special socket to remove it, the sensor is the one that is before the catalytic converter. part number is:DENSO Part # 2344068
REAR; Before Catalyst

SOURCE: I have a 2000 Mazda

Most likely a bad O2 sensor. Search the internet for O2 sensor info for how they work and more detail on heated O2 sensors. Sensor 1 means upstream or in the manifold. In front of the catylytic converter. There is what appears to be a small catylytic converter at the very end of the exhaust manifolds in addition to the one that looks like a normal size converter. Sensor one is at the back of the exhaust manifold between the engine and the manifold. Reference source: http://www.aa1car.com/library/o2sensor.htm

Or...

The heater circuit can be checked with a test light connected to ground. ( a test light is an ice pick looking tool with a clear handle with a 12 volt bulb inside and a ware with a clip to connect to ground, the light will light as the tip is touched to anything powered up with 12 volts and sometimes a little more and a whole lot less) Find the oxygen sensors ( their screwed into the exhaust pipes) Disconnect the electrical connectors and connect the test light to ground, with the key on test the wires in the plug connected to the vehicle. one of them should light the light, if it does reconnect it and test the rest of the sensors, recalling which wire was live. ( most are white or gray but they vary some). If all the sensors have power it's not the power but the sensor failed. with an ohm meter test the sensor for the wire that was hot to the other wire that is the same color if the snensor is open ( no circuit ) you have found the bad sensor. If you can't find power going to any of the sensors. Check the fuse boxes for blown fuses ( check them all with a test light) If you find a blown fuse replace it but go back to the wiring that connects to the sensors and you'll find someplace where the wire melted to the exhaust pipes and shorted out, blowing the fuse. The sensors short out too but not very often.

It'll never go into closed loop with those codes.

Check for major air leak in exhaust. Or 2 dead sensors (very unlikely)

Code P0134 O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected Bank 1 Sensor 1

A code P0134 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
  • Bad O2 (oxygen) sensor
  • Bad heater circuit in the O2 sensor
  • Wiring or connector to the sensor frayed / broken
  • Blown heater circuit fuse
  • Holes in the exhaust system
  • PCM failure

I'm thinking about buying a 2002 range rover. It has a service/check engine codes of 134,135,155. Is it likely to be more than oxygen sensor problems? Please reply , Mel

with those codes showing, it could be either bad O2 sensors or there is a problem with the wiring to those sensors. Also, the wrong sensors may be installed. I'm assuming codes P0134, P0135, P0155.

For others viewing this:

P0134 = O2 sensor circuit-no activity detected (bank 1 sensor 1)

P0135 = O2 sensor heater circuit malfunction (bank 1 sensor 1)

P0155 = O2 sensor heater circuit malfunction (bank 2 sensor 1)

P134, p0141, po300, po130 and po135. 2005 Sunfire.

Given that most of the trouble codes are for the O2 sensor, I think I would change it. The multiple misfires could be because of improper fuel/air mixture caused by a bad sensor. Disconnect the negative(-) battery terminal then change the sensor. Disconnecting the negative(-) should reset the computer and allow the fuel/air mixture to return to default allowing the engine to start.
