Troubleshooting

Check Engine Light is On

Use an OBD-II scanner to read the error codes. This may indicate a faulty sensor or related issue. Check the sensor's wiring and connections.

Poor Fuel Economy

A faulty sensor can cause the engine to run rich or lean, impacting fuel economy. Consider replacing the sensor if it is old or suspected to be faulty.

Rough Idling

A malfunctioning sensor can cause the engine to idle roughly. Check for leaks in the exhaust system.

Hesitation or Stalling

This could be a sign of a bad sensor. Check connections and wiring. If the issue continues, replace the sensor.
