Description:

  • The fault code P0132 indicates that there is a high voltage condition in the circuit that controls the oxygen sensor for bank 1, sensor 1. This may cause the engine to run poorly, reduce fuel efficiency, or emit excessive emissions.

Possible Symptoms:

  • Illuminated check engine light

  • Poor engine performance or reduced fuel efficiency

  • Excessive emissions

  • Rough idle or stalling

Possible Causes:

  • Failed oxygen sensor

  • Wiring or connections in the circuit damaged or disconnected

  • Exhaust leaks or other damage to the exhaust system

  • Faulty engine control module (ECM)

Related Parts:

  • Oxygen Sensor: This is one of the parts that fails very commonly. It measures the amount of oxygen to ensure proper combustion. Problems in the Oxygen Sensor lead to poor fuel economy

Possible Solutions:

  • Replace the oxygen sensor

  • Check and repair any damaged wiring or connections

  • Inspect and repair any damage to the exhaust system

  • Replace the engine control module (ECM) if necessary
