The code is for the sensor 1 bank 2. That would be the O2 sensor closest to the bulkhead before the catalytic converter. As far as the buzzing noise, I'd make sure all of your grounds are good, and if they are, I'd look at the alternator having electrical noise where a suppressor is needed.
Make sure the idle "kick up" is operating. This sensor idles the engine up so that the A/C doesn't drag the engine down.

You need to take this to a dealer, I think you may have an issue with the injector circuit, possible a defective PCM or wiring issue to the injectors, I don't think that the injectors themselves are the cause.

SOURCE: Very Rough running engine

Check the faults on your code reader, if you do have a misfire on a particular cylinder try swapping coil packs and see if the misfire changes cylinder. Is it a 2.0 turbo? I have come across many with air leaks, causing rough running.

SOURCE: 2001 oldsmobile intrigue 3.5 L, Alternator/Battery

The battery light coming on means the charging system cannot manage the demand on the system - i.e weak battery, defective alternator, bad regulator...
Changing parts doesn't necessarily mean the replacements are working. Measure the voltage on the battery with the car running, you should see 13.7 to 15.1 volts. Turn on the headlamps, rear defogger, etc (put the system under load), you should stay in the same range.
Assuming all of your electrical connections are good, the symptoms point to the alternator/regulator - these are integrated into one unit.

Sounds like there is a blown piston, to be sure have a compression test done on that #2 cylinder, if the reading is low, then you'll know.
A friend of mine had a 95 that did simular things only a little more,
it started smoking, dash lights flickered, etc. Finally, he had to get rid of it, the piston rod went through the engine block.

05 sienna no start the engine light is on and codes say it is all 6 coils is this possible for them to all go out at once

No, it sounds more like this is a random mis-fire causing this issue and that you are jsut seeing it in all 6. I would recommend doing a tune up with new plugs and see if that cures the problem.

Check engine light came on week ago. changed battery today and now check engine light not on. Will check engine light come on later?

The check engine light may come on later. When the check engine light comes on the computer in your car logs a code. This trouble code may or may not cause drivability issues. The computer in your car always tries to fix the problem. If the check engine light is not on, there is not a problem. It may come on later if it detects another problem. Changing the battery could have fixed some problems. The ground system on the cars cause a lot of problems for technitians. If the trouble light is not on, don't look to spend a lot of money to look for problems that the computer is not picking up.

When 1999 Toyota sienna xle check engine light is on?

If the light was flashing when it came on, then it means your engine is misfiring.

A solid light can mean anything from a loose/faulty gas cap to a transmission issue.

This light comes on when the computer detects a fault of some sort in its diagnostic tests. If it keeps detecting this issue, the light will remain on. If the light turns off, then it has detected that the issue may no longer be present.

In order to find out what the exact reason was for your light, You need to have your car computer scanned to retrieve the code that the computer would have stored when the light triggered. Most garages will do this free of charge. The code will tell you what may have caused the light to initially turn on.

2004 toyota sienna engine and vsc light

well the check engine light on can mean many different issues its just a symbol telling you that your ecu (engine computer) has found an issue with your vehicle it is not a specific indicator of whats going on unless you get the codes pulled from your computer any autozone will pull the codes for free and some shops will also just call around they will not diagnose prob for free though it could be anything vacume leaks - o2 sensor bad ext....as far as your vsc being on most of the time when your check engine light comes on the vsc will light up also does not mean there is an issue with your vsc system....i work as a mechanic for a toyota dealer and see his all the time and check to make sure your gas cap is tight will set check eng and i see it all the time when custs forget to tighhten gas cap if its loose you can get the codes erased hope this helps!!!!
