1999 Honda CRV. What do these codes mean P1399 and P0141.

The OBD-II error code P1399 and P0141 for a Honda CRV 1999 are as follows:
P1399 - This code indicates that there is a problem with the misfire detection system in the vehicle. This code is often accompanied by other codes that indicate which specific cylinder is misfiring. Causes of this code could include a faulty ignition system, a clogged fuel injector, or a problem with the engine control module (ECM).
P0141 - This code indicates a malfunction in the oxygen sensor located on Bank 1, Sensor 2. This sensor measures the oxygen content in the exhaust gas after it has passed through the catalytic converter. Causes of this code could include a faulty sensor, a damaged sensor wiring harness, or a problem with the vehicle's computer.
It is recommended that you have a certified mechanic diagnose and repair these issues to ensure proper operation of your vehicle.

right off all data

p1399 is a random misfire code and honda has reported for various models that this could be caused by clogged egr ports, in addition there is the possibility that the valve clearance spec may be out of range.check plugs and wires first and proper gap.

What is scan code P1399 and how to fix the problem.

P1399- Manufactures control Ignition system OR Misfire

If only one of your cylinders was misfiring, you probably would be getting a more specific code than P1399.
Also check the distributor rotor along with the cap and coils and wires; the EGR valve to make sure it doesn't leak; your fuel pressure which can cause random misfires if the pressure is too low; and injectors if they are really dirty. If you have really high mileage, I probably would first just change out the plug wires with a new set, then reset the DTC and see if the code comes back.

2000 honda crv p1399 and p0301 check engine codes

Code P1399 is specific to Honda - it is an error code for "multiple variable misfires detected". P0301-P0304 are common OBDC codes for all cars, specifically "misfire in cylinder X".

You will get the P0301-P0304 codes on your OBDC reader when you plug it in (if actually errors), but will only find the P1399 if you select Honda as the manufacturer.

Just got these errors today on my CRV 2000. Now I have to figure out what is causing two of the cylinders to misfire.

Po300 random mulitple misfire detected p1399 misfire any cylinder

If only one of your cylinders was misfiring, you probably would be getting a more specific code than P1399.
Also check the distributor rotor along with the cap and coils and wires (as mrgreenz suggests); the EGR valve to make sure it doesn't leak; your fuel pressure which can cause random misfires if the pressure is too low; and injectors if they are really dirty. If you have really high mileage, I probably would first just change out the plug wires with a new set, then reset the DTC and see if the code comes back.
Hope this is helpful as well.
