I have Mazda 6 2006 - 4 cylinder. I got the PO137 code.

What O2 sensor do I need to buy and where is it located on my car to change? What tool do I need and is it a pain to switch out? Is there a picture I can reference? I can't find anything. Thanks!

Code p0137 refers to heated oxygen sensor(HO2S) 2 bank 1--low voltage ===causes ---exhaust leak---wiring short to ground ---HO2S---ECM
it als refers to oxygen sensor(O2S) 2 bank 1---low voltage ===causes ---exhaust leak---wiring short to ground ---ECM
take your car to a muffler /exhaust shop and have the flexible section of the exhaust pipe connected to the exhaust manifold checked for cracks under the stainless steel covering
the HO2S is most likely the cause of the code and it is best removed and replaced using a special tube socket that protects the wires during the replacement
it can be a pain as it will be tight and in a n awkward position so consider having the exhaust shop replace it as they should have the socket and knowledge to do the job
the HO2S is the one in the exhaust manifold and the O2S is the one after the cat converter

P0137 is an O2 sensor low voltage code. bank 1 sensor 2. This could cause a rough start. The sensor that needs replaced is on the drivers side, after the catalytic converter

Check engine code p0137

P0137 - Oxygen (o2) sensor circuit low voltage (Bank 1 sensor 2)
If you have more than one (1) sensor on Bank 1 then it will be the rear sensor. Change the o2 sensor. You may also want to check the following:
  • Repair exhaust leak near the rear sensor (if leak is found)
  • Check for restriction in catalyst and replace as necessary
  • Repair short, open, or high resistance on o2 signal circuit

  • Most likely you will just need to replace the sensor. Hope this helps you.

    Hi, I need to take my 2001 Mazda 626 4cyln for SMOG check in CA. But its check engine light is on, diagnosed as code P0421. Appreciate your help to fix this problem, or just to pass the check. Thank you.

    CODE P0421. DEFINITION-CATALYST EFFICIENCY LOW-BANK 1. EXPLANATION-THE OXYGEN SENSORS MONITOR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS ABILITY TO STORE OXYGEN. PROBLEM CAUSES- 1. CATALYTIC CONVERTER DEFECTIVE (FAILURE POSSIBLY DUE TO #2,3, OR 4) 2. ENGINE MISFIRE OR RUNNING CONDITION. 3. LARGE VACCUM LEAK 4. ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE INTO EXHAUST-VALVE GUIDE SEALS, PISTON RINGS. THE PCM HAS DETERMINED THAT THE WARM UP CATALYST EFFICIENCY FOR BANK 1 IS BELOW TRESHOLD FOR THE CURRENT ENGINE OPERATING CONDITION. (BANK 1 IDENTIFIES THE LOCATION OF CYLINDER #1, WHILE BANK 2 IDENTIFIES THE CYLINDERS ON THE OPPOSITE BANK).

    replace O2 sensors, or your Catalytic Converter.

    Where is O2 sensor located on 2000 626 mazda 4 cylinder

    the 4 cylinder has only one oxygen sensor. this sensor is a plug in with two wires coming out of it. As the exhaust leaves the motor the o2 sensor tells the car what carbon is leaving the. The o2 sensor is located on the exhaust pipe directly leaving the motor

    Po137/po157 codes no activity

    P0137 / P0157-Oxygen O2 Sensor Circuit Low Voltage (Bank 1, Sensor 2) refers to the second oxygen sensor on Bank 1. P0137 means the O2 oxygen sensor's voltage remained low for longer than 2 minutes. This, is interpreted by the ECM as a low voltage condition and sets the MIL. Bank 1 Sensor 2 is located to the rear of the catalytic converter and should produce an output signal relative to oxygen storage capacity of the catalytic converter. This rear (sensor 2) sensor is less active than the signal produced by the front sensor. However, if the ECM senses the sensor is inactive, this code will set.

    A code P0137 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:

    Faulty o2 sensor Exhaust leak near the rear sensor
    Plugged catalyst
    Short to voltage on O2 signal circuit
    High resistance or open on O2 signal circuit

    Possible Solutions…
    Replace faulty sensor
    Repair exhaust leak near the rear sensor
    Check for restriction in catalyst and replace as necessary
    Repair short, open, or high resistance on o2 signal circuit

    Fault code P0133 can't pass inspection.

    This code does not always mean the O2 sensor is low, but if u want to replace it here is the info to do that and the part number.

    The sensor you want is the one in the exhaust pipe of the engine cylinder bank that has #1 cylinder in it, as you face the engine with the hood open the cylinder bank u want is the rear bank, u will need to jack the car up and get under it to remove the sensor, u may also need a special socket to remove it, the sensor is the one that is before the catalytic converter. part number is:DENSO Part # 2344068
    REAR; Before Catalyst
