  1. its not the O2 sensor, its the air fuel sensor. ive replaced them, 2 nos and now its ok, in normal working condition. ← what was the part numbers and OEM of the Air Fuel sensors you replaced? ← DENSO Part # 2349009 Oxygen Sensor: Air Fuel Ratio Sensor #8946748011 Its better you to check from http://www.rockauto.com My one is model 2001. U said u replace the both A/F sensor, are they the same part number from the existing u replaced? is it really new? It Should be the same part number, i've try different part number on the air/fuel sensor but it not works. Hope thats help u. thks
  2. P1133 - Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor Circuit Response Malfunction. It might be the Air/Fuel Sensor located. One air/fuel sensor located at the exhaust manifold and one before the catalytic converter, both the same part and same function. Normally both sensor to be replace. The rear sensor (after the catalytic converter) is the O2 sensor. Its look like your air/fuel sensor malfunction. FYI..... I got P1155 - Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction, its look like the same parts mentioned (air/fuel sensor). Replaced, and the engine check lights no more. Hope that helps. ← thanks What is the difference in an Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor and an O2 sensor?? I replaced the front one first, light came back on. Talked to a Lexus 'expert" who said I replaced wrong one. Put O2 on the the back of the firewall and light still on, that is when I got the MAF code, replaced it with OEM part, and light on again, giving same code it gave originally. So am going to replace both O2 Sensors and see what happens. What is irritating is that it is only coding one trouble spot..not 2. ← The two Air/Fuel Sensor and O2 sensor both work differently. Yes, normally have to change both of the sensor. Hopefully can solve ur problem. Might helps u, go to.... http://www.boschusa.com/AutoParts/FAQs/OxygenSensors/ Q. What does an oxygen sensor do? A. The oxygen sensor sends a signal to the engine computer based on the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas. This signal is used by the engine ECU to fine-tune the mixture to the optimum level for maximum catalyst efficiency and longevity. A worn-out oxygen sensor can cause excessive gasoline consumption, elevated exhaust emissions, accelerated catalytic converter damage failures and cause engine performance problems such as surging and hesitating. Q. Except for the connector assembly, aren't all oxygen sensors basically the same? A. NO. There are five fundamentally different types of oxygen sensors: unheated thimble, heated thimble, planar, wide-band and titania. Within each sensor type, sensors vary in the design of the ceramic element, heater element and protection tube design, all of which affect sensor operation. Q. Where are oxygen sensors located and do they have different purposes? A. Oxygen sensors have been standard equipment on almost all passenger cars and light trucks with gasoline engines since 1980-1981. Most vehicles built before the mid-90’s have one or two oxygen sensors (two were used on selected V6 and V8 engines starting in the late 1980s). Oxygen sensors are normally located in the exhaust system before the catalytic converter to measure exhaust emissions as they come from the engine combustion chambers. In 1996 with the federal mandated use of on-board-diagnostic systems (OBDII), vehicles also require additional oxygen sensors after the catalytic converter, to ensure that the converter is operating properly.

  4. there are 2 (same part) in the front before the catalyst and one behind (different part from the other 2) The 2 front ones are $189, the one on the back 100. #1Motormart.com So, a total of 3 sensors. ← thks for ur reply, u r right, the front two sensor actually air fuel sensor and the last sensor (below) O2 sensor. I've change both air/fuel sensor (before the catalyst). and no more engine check lights. thks
  5. its not the O2 sensor, its the air fuel sensor. ive replaced them, 2 nos and now its ok, in normal working condition.
  6. how many O2 sensor are they on RX300. what i know only two (2) sensor. but when the mechanic checked. i got three (3) sensor and again different cable connector from the others two (2) sensor models.
  7. RX300 - VSC and Engine Check Lights On at the same time, try to reset but cannot, remove the EFI fuse, but still the same. Checked and found out Code P1155 Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction the mechanics said its the air flow sensor defective, is it true? try to check and install new flow sensor, but the VSC lights still on also the check engine lights. suggest by the mechanics, its the O2 sensor, 2 nos. have to be replaced. anyone can help to solve my problem, is it true to replace the O2 sensor. thks

  9. Is the black rubber hose behind the air filter box disconnected from the metal tube that it attaches to? This is a common problem and happens when someone checks the air filter. Pull the EFI fuse to reset the light. ← The rubber hose is connected. Will try to pull the EFI fuse to reset the light. thks Try already to pull out the EFI fuse and put it back, the lights off for a few seconds only and lights come back again. Pls, if there's any other way to solve this problem. thks
  10. My RX300 got VSC and its engine check lights on.... try to open gas cap and closed, but still lights going on. Checked, and Air Flow Sensor mulfunctioning, and try to confirmed by replacing with new A/F Sensor, but the lights still on. Can anyone help me to solve this problem. lastly are the ABS connected to this problem? thks
