Just had the identical problem with my son in laws Stratus. Auto Zone said it was the "output speed sendor on the transmission". Went to the dealer for the part. $20.00. Found where it was located and replaced. Works great. The speedometer not working is a clear sign. Make sure you replace the "output" sensor as there is an input that looks similar.

'02 Maxima P0138 Error Code by ldc5

The check engine light started coming on about 9 months after buying my '02 Maxima, with the P0138 code. Although it only has ~78K miles on it, I replaced the O2 sensor recommended by the error code diagnosis and cleared the error code using an Actron analyzer. The same code still comes on......any advice to finally resolve putting-out this darn check engine light is greatly appreciated.

You might need to have the harness checked for bad wiring. This can cause the ECM to get a weird voltage signal from the 02 sensor 2, and throw the P0138 code.
 
So maybe clean up whatever connections you can and clear the code. It might clear itself. Sometimes they do.

I had a similar problem once. Replaced the O2 sensor, cleared the check engine light, after running a couple of minutes the check engine light returns. Code says MAF then I'm thinking man this sucks and yank the battery cable and left it off for 30 minutes. Reconnect and all codes cleared and never came back.
 
Sometimes a hard reboot will do it.

Thank you. I assume you mean the harnes & connector leading from each oxygen sensor all the back to the ECM?....another question, do you have an opinion on if Haynes manual for this car has sufficient detail, or should I invest in the shop manual?

No Haynes won't do it.
