So get it fixed? no engine size posted. so ???? impossible to be accurate.
or DIY, you have tools? and skills. to do that.
it means the Oxygen sensor has issues.
means bank 2 is stuck rich
bank 2 means car is V6. bank 2 means bank with #2 cylinder loc.

for much better, reasons and test. see here

http://www.scantool.net/software/alldata-diy-1-month-subscription.html

is this the only DTC code.??? no others, and did you use a scan tool
that can read all Toy codes, like P1xxx ? codes factory codes.
if not you missed the boat.
my wild guess. (i do tests in real world)
bank 2 is rich.
due to what?
1: misfiring, ever do a tune up? see fouled spark plugs bank 2, look.
2: injector leaking.

there are lost of tests, im not going to list them all.
but it takes tools and time.
compression at spec. bank 2?
OIL FOULED SPARK PLUGS, there, oops.
or bad COP on bank 2,

your car engine may have some hidden problem, suggest you take it to dealer workshop to have you car ECU scan and it will resolve the problem once and for all.

Mass Air Flow sensor! Just remove your air filter cover. Go to Auto Zone and purchase some solvent. Spray past the air filter and it should correct the problem. If not, replace the Mass air-flow sensor. This is commonly mistaken for an oxygen sensor. Mine did this and I followed these steps and it fixed the light. BTW, the light stayed on for 5 years before I fixed it. Never hurt anything. It's normally something to do with emissions. Dummy lights. :)

Should the catalytic converter be replaced in 2000 toyota corolla

Yes, but only if you fail emissions testing and the car cannot be registered unless it passes test. And if not clogged and not necessary for passing I would just leave it be.

replace the o2 sensor,, clear the codes ,, and see if that cat code comes back, they work in unison,, so you may just need the O2 sensor, and all codes will clear

Why did the catalytic converter on my 2003 Toyota Highlander fail? How do I prevent this from happening again?

I had the same thing happen on a 2003 Corolla. The dealer said one possible cause was too much oil which was blown on to the fins in the catalytic converter causing damage. The catalytic converter is a pollution device so unless you need to pass an emissions test it may not be a factor.

I have a toyota corolla 2003 and recently went for an emissions test and passed. The day after my emission test, the engine light went on. I tried to unscrew and rescrew the gas tank cap, but it didn't...

After tightening the gas cap, you will have to drive the car a few 'cycles' before the light goes off. If that doesn't work, have the trouble codes read to find out exactly what is wrong and causing the light to illuminate.

Emissions failure due to an evap code

Your emission sensors seem to be just a 'spec' out of normal (I would not call them defective!), but it could also be tainted fuel. Just to pass test I would buy the gas treatment at your local auto parts specifically for emission testing. Ask them at the counter. It will get you passed.

Check engine light/2003 toyota CE

have you had a diagnostic code check? if not i'd start there. it sounds like it might be a oygen sensor, but before spending money on it, it really should have a diagnostic test to tell you exactly whats causing the problem.
