#7 of 629 failed D.E.Q ..... 1998 kia sportage by cwoodard Dec 03, 2006 (6:00 pm)
diagnostic code reads: P0140 02sensor circuit no activiy detected (bank 1 sensor 2) somewhere i found the code to mean the oxygen sensor. The owners manaul suggests to first start with the fuses. Then the wiring, and last the sensors. Checking the fuses was easy .... they are not blown. Now I am lost as I have no idea where to look for wiring, or where the oxygen sensors are located. Can anyone help? Replies to this message: rgarrison (Dec 23, 2006 10:09 am) cwoodard (Dec 23, 2006 11:30 am)

Replying to: cwoodard (Dec 03, 2006 6:00 pm) I had the same problem. You have to change the o2 sensor. $105.99 at autozone only go with oem part. Replies to this message: cwoodard (Dec 23, 2006 11:30 am)

Replying to: rgarrison (Dec 23, 2006 10:09 am) thank you! alhou I did change the wires and coils, and the check engine lite stayed off for almost 2 days, in which I got it thru D.E.Q. and it passed!!! The lite is back on, then off, now on.... so thats my next project!! I appreciate the advice to stay with the OEM part.... and I did find an illustrated guide on line thru the official kia site on how to do everything and where everything is located!! Maybe something I should post for everyone? again thank you!

http://www.kiatechinfo.com/index.asp you have to sign up, but it costs nothing!! once you are at the site, in the left column, click on ETM it takes you to another screen. On the header of the main screen you need to select your model, year, control unit, and option. Once you have done that, use the column on the left to type in what you are looking for, such as brakes, spark plugs, etc, Good Luck .... its been a life saver for me!!

Replying to: tidester (Dec 25, 2006 1:03 am) "thank you!" I most definitely will show the questions and answers. The questions I would answer and was not clear with, is if anyone is having a problem with the web site and how to perform a search.
