For about 5 minutes and then it went off all on it's on. Is this a glitch in the matrix or something I should look into. 2005 ES330.

Thanks

 

It should have a pending code, you can read it with an OBD II scanner. Auto parts stores will read it for free if you don't own a scanner.

 

yea, go to the parts store and have them scan for codes.

 

But do not depend on them to tell you what is wrong. There are several possible causes for most codes and some are "companion" codes which can be red herrings. If you have multiple codes, erase them, drive until the CE light comes back and immediately check to see what code throws first.

 

its funny you mentioned that, my car was misfiring and the codes would state that the knock & crank sensor along with the emissions box that needed replacing. also the traction off light would stay on. as soon as i changed the coil packs that needed changing, the light hasn't come back on after i reset the ecu. i never thought one thing would affect a few others as well.

 

Drove it all day and the CL never came back on. I do have a code reader, I'll see if there are any codes sometime this weekend.

 

Code is P0137. The car ran just fine during the short period the CL was on and it hasn't come back on since. I rest it it while I was in there. Guess I won't worry about it unless it comes on again.

 

02 sensor code, bank one sensor 2. how many miles do you have?

Here is a heads up. Your sensor is probably borderline. The CEL will likely come back within about 1 week or so, depending how much you drive.

So in the meantime plan on getting another one, or wait till the CEL comes on again.

If I were you, I'll get another one ready just in case. At least you have a bit of time to shop around. Just make sure you get an original part and not an aftermarket.

195k.

This message is too short so I added this to appease the gods.

 

[QUOTE=PFB;9050957]Would you happen to have a part #?

Thanks

 

also, which sensor is it? the one in the front?

 

Bank one is in the rear of the engine next to the firewall....... Tough to work on, but not impossible.

this might be it, if number 2 is after the cat.
