Throwing codes one after another!! Holy...

This is the place to ask questions about your engine components like cams, valves, pistons… just anything that is generally "engine" specific. This also includes questions about exhaust systems such as exhaust manifolds, piping size, mufflers, ect...

Throwing codes one after another!! Holy...

Post by dodgeneonzl » Mon Dec 05, 2011 10:47 pm

So it all started with P0420, so i figured i might as well change the downstream O2 sensor and maybe that would fix the problem. So after changing the downstream O2 sensor for a day, P0128, and P0138 popped up. Okay, P0128 was the thermostat, replaced and check. So now I'm still left with P0138 which is (P0138 HO2S Circuit High Voltage Bank 1 Sensor 2)so it seems like it's the downstream O2 sensor...

Since i just replaced it, do you think that my cat is really shot? Or should i replace my upstream O2 sensor? Both upstream and downstream were still the original sensor (except now i already changed the downstream).

So, just like occasional said the engine light did go away after 2 days but when i do the key dance it still shows P0138... and if i put the key in and turn it to on position without cranking it, the check engine light will start to flash. I believe the check engine light just stay on before, but now it'll flash. Anyone know what the deal is?

I think i heard someone said to change both up and downstream O2 sensors together otherwise it will throw a code?? Could this be it???
