850 engine light on with code PO137

Post by adrian22 »

My 850 is having a bad fuel consumtion and the engine warning light on.I have a code reader and got the code PO137(rear o2 sensor low voltage)
I am not sure if that means to replace the sensor or just clean it.I understand there is a way to mesure the voltage of the sensor ,can anybody give me me some light on this issue?
Thanks

Sounds like the classic symptoms of a sensor going bad to me. Same thing happened with my 850, except mine was front O2 sensor code (222) and 4mpg drop in efficiency.

Both took care of themselves right after I changed the sensor.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
