Kia sephia 2000 (manual) Oxygen sensor P0133

I bought a Kia Sephia, and after 2 days a check engine is Led, now after the emission test there is a fault P0133 which is Oxygen Sensor. How can I fix it by my self? if there is a manual on how to do that, it would be great.

    P0133 doesn't mean the sensor, it only means a problem in the sensor circuit signal, that can be the sensor, the wiring or even the PCM.

The Oxygen probe is located in the exhaust manifold or front exhaust pipe it takes a 22mm wrench to loosen it and at first you need to dismantle the battery to avoid electric hazard, then the cable to the probe so it does not have any connection with the vehicle, clips and holders, after that turn the probe anticlockwise to dismantle it, and reversed operations when fitting the new one, and that should fix you problem.
The only thing that can be a problem is if the probe is rusted together to the manifold, that requires professional help.

My 1999 kia sephia wont pass smog test

You will need to get it scanned and get the codes for the problem. If it failed the test due to emissions I would almost guarantee it will be your oxygen sensor or cat

My check engine light/overdrive flashes on my 2000 kia sephia what could be the problem?

There are many different sources for the light to come on. Anything that caused combustion to fail, commonly called a misfire will set the light. Various sensors such as oxygen sensors that evaluate the exhaust before and after the gases are burned in the converter. Transmission codes may set the check engine light to appear. If the car is running okay, get it fixed in a reasonable amount of time such as within the month. It will probably save you fuel if you do. However if the Check engine light is flashing, you should not be driving it as damage is being done to the converter.
