Code P0133 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe 3.2 engine awd

Hyundai Sante Fe

I have a check engine light on. The code reader displays code P0133 O2 sensor slow response bank 1 sensor 1
I have replaced the oxygen sensor twice, the fuel cap, spark plugs, fuel filter, intake manifold gaskets. All to the tune of $1400 but the light keeps coming back on.


Using a scan tool make certain the Sensor is working. If it is not working look into the wiring harness and connections. Next check for exhaust leaks, especially if any work has been done to the exhaust.
