P0135 code = bank 1 sensor 1 = what p/n??

Postby Gooseguy84 » Thu Jun 21, 2012 6:58 am

Hi guys, I've done my research, or at least tried to after getting a P0135 code. It appears to be a common issue. Bank 1 Sensor 1. Pre-cat in the back by the firewall. Now the hard part.....figuring out which sensor to actually buy as there is no way in hell I'm spending $180 at the dealer. I am 99% sure it is Denso 234-4622, but can someone just confirm this quickly.

I have a 1999 V6 - Non Cali car.

Thanks very much

Hopefully this is is. http://www.ebay.com/itm/09-2010-2011-Toyota-RAV4-Camry-Matrix-Corolla-Oxygen-Sensor-Denso-2344622-/270997320377?fits=Make:Toyota&hash=item3f18b2f2b9&item=270997320377&pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr

My experience ( THAT DARN CONNECTOR)

Bank 1, sensor 1 is the one near the firewall, Autozone code scanned it for me and I got the P0135 code for Bank 1, Sensor 1.
I bought the angled wrench 33625246 for about $30. That made the job cake except the connector.

Since I had the service manual, the harder part was finding bank 1, sensor 1. At one Autozone, they were able to show me a pic of the engine with the cylinder numbering. Bank 1 is always closer to cylinder #1.

I looked on the Internet and someone else agrees. The technique is to use a small screwdriver on the sensor side of the connector and push the latch toward the inside of the connector. I practiced on the easy one first. On the one near the firewall, I was able to undo the connector with one hand with the screwdriver, but I could not get two hands back there. I'm not clumbsy with my hands by a long shot. I'm rather ambidextrous.

If you find the magic spot the connector VERY EASILY pulls out. No effort at all, once you find the sweet spot.

I bought a Bosch sensor 13355 for about $96 at Autozone, which the wire was a tad longer than the original. The instructions said to tie it up with a couple of tie wraps. Don't tie it close to the sensor, it makes the wrench harder to use. I shortened the cable prior to installing it. The sensor came with anti-sieze already on it.

If you reset the ECM, you have to disconnect the battery for at least a minute and you'll loose your radio presets. Probably unplugging a fuse would work too.

The car had about 86K miles on it and both sensor 1 bank 1 and sensor 1 bank two have been replaced before within a few months of each other.

I was quoted a price of about $225 to replace bank 1, sensor 1, but that did not include a diagnostic charge and they even said the "Front one" which is the could be the wrong one. It depends on what "Front" means. If it means #1, then we're OK.
