P0138 - Oxygen Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank1, Sensor2)

P0139 - Oxygen Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank1, Sensor2)

The Heated Oxygen Sensor (1 or 2) located rear of catalytic converter produces an output signal relative to oxygen storage capacity of catalytic converter. Ho2S 2 signal is less active than signal produced by front oxygen sensor. This code sets when HO2 Sensor voltage is greater than 999 mV for more than 2 minutes (time depends on model. Could be as high as 4 minutes)

Symptoms: There may be no noticeable symptoms except for MIL illumination. Possible high fuel pressure can over rich the system.

Causes: A code P0138 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
* Faulty O2 sensor
* Short to battery voltage in O2 sensor signal circuit
* High fuel pressure (not as likely)

Here are some potential solutions:
* Replace O2 sensor
* Repair short to battery voltage in o2 sensor signal circuit

Hope helps (remember to rate this answer).

2007 Corolla, car stalls at low RPM when cold and is hard to start. Now it's becoming hard to start when it is warm too. Engine codes P0138. P0139, P0420, I'ver replaced the O2 sensor, and the problem...

P0138 O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage
P0139 O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response
P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold

First things to check and clean is the MAF sensor and the IAC valve...these two cause problems from carbon and dirt buildup...use MAF cleaner only....if this works, great, if not....

Clean trottle body....or

Check for a plugged catalytic converter...remove the O2 sensors and start the car, does it seem better? If it does change the catalyst..

My 2001 Pathfinder has an SES light with codes p1140, p0138, p0139... O2 sensors and a cam sensor... O2 sensor replaced, and the swapped the cam sensor with its partner on the other side... 150miles...

Possible mass airflow sensor. A cheaper way to get around paying for the super expensive 2001 Path part is to use the same year maxima sensor since they use the same motor :)

Code number P0139 BK1 code number p0139 BK1

This code indicates the oxygen sensor on bank one is not operating properly. Check the wiring to this sensor for breaks or grounding before replacing the sensor.

Check engine light

I would say that your o2 sensors are faulty either the pre or the post . They must be intermitten so I would replace both
