when I start in the morning there are no lights on and then after a minute or two the infamous three light up and if I turn the car off it will reset itself and after driving for about ten minutes or so if I pull over and restart the car the light will stay off for the rest of the day.. then it all repeats all over again the next day. My buddy had a cheap scanner on it and it was reading misfire with the code h02s but thats the only code that popped up there was no poo51 or anything like that. Id like to get this resolved asap but may not be able to address it for at least a week if i really cant get to it or get the part. in research in the code its saying two different thing one is bank 2 sensor 2 which would be easy enough. the other would be bank 2 sensor one which seems to be a bear, any input would be appreciated. My car has 145,000 miles on it and runs great, I was going to do a tune up on it this weekend plugs and coils but now this popped up so Id really like to possibly do it all in one shot but dont really know too much about this code or what the possible symptoms or causes would be or the repair parts or procedures would entail or time frames...or do I need to take it somewhere to get the proper diagnosis and if I do what procedure do I ask for and approximate cost for the diagnosis...thanks again.

One thing that you should check, and is easy to check, is the car's starting battery. This could be an indication that the battery has a low SOC which could be related to battery age or a defective cell in the battery. If the battery is 40 or more months old it would be a good idea to replace it.

after this was starting ,the other morning after work the car wouldn't start and I had to get a jump and I was baffled because I had just replaced the battery in November of last year. So that could explain alot. Will definately look into thay. I do live in south florida where its parked in the sun at work and at home where the cabin temps are extremely high every day. Thank you for that input and a staring point
