01 Highlander, had Autozone pull these two codes. I bought a Haynes manual, but the codes do not run into the 1000's, they show to be all in the hundreds.
Can anyone tell me the meaning of these two codes, and possible solutions? I posted about washing the car and having these show up. I think something must have gotten wet to cause the codes.
Thanks.

Those are O2 sensor codes. Search this thread and you'll find plenty of info (but not about them being water-related).

Thanks, I searched the net last night and found the codes. It appears that the bank 1 O2 sensor has an issue. I'm thinking that water entered the elec connector and possibly shorted it out or caused an issue. I'll try that first, then replace the sensor if necessary.
Thanks for your reply.

I'm having the same problem with my 2003 Highlander, the Check Engine light keeps coming on. We've paid over $400 to have the 1st oxygen sensor fixed just a month ago, now the dealer is saying the 2nd one is out, another $400. Where can I find details on this recall - does it affect my model? I have an 8cyl AWD, thx for any help, this seems like an expensive issue.

do you know what the error message is when your check engine light comes on? if it says something like "emissions" then it's possibly the same problem i had.
call the dealer and give them your VIN number, ask if there were any recalls for your vehicle.
since the day i had mine fixed, i haven't had my CE come back on! thankfully!!

When the 1st sensor blew in August, it was the heater circuit, bank 1 sensor 1, error msg PO135. Yesterday it was the heater circuit, bank2 sensor 1, error PO155. In checking online it seems only the 4cyl models were recalled, I have a 6cyl. I contacted the GM at the dealership yesterday to plead my case; the Svc Mgr seemed indifferent in resolving the issue. If each one of these sensors costs $400 to fix, with 4 of them in 2 "banks", that's a conceivable $1600 cost repair for each bank, yikes! Of course if they are not fixed, I'm learning it could be even more expensive if the catalytic converter is affected. WIth only 71K miles on this car, I feel I'm not getting that famous Toyota dependabililty.

1. If they're charging you $400, go somewhere else. Its a simple job and doesn't take any Toyota-specific knowledge or tool.
2. There are only 3 on the V6, despite what the manual says. Bank 1 is the rear exhaust manifold, Bank 2 is in the front manifold, and the third (post cat) is after the converter just before the muffler.
3. Please see posts 4360 and 4362 in the Maintenance and Repair forum.
4. There is no recall for O2 sensors. Someone posted a general comment that there was, but was not able to provide any detail.

Back in September I had an O2 light also. The sensor, with a discount, cost me $250.00 at the Toyota dealership. Two days ago I got another light. I hope it's on the other (there are 2) bank. In any case, I ordered the sensor, a Bosch (OE) #1521 from Amazon for $109.00. I like the price. Since it is also the front sensor, I'll probably try to replace it myself. It's supposed to be an easy job? I'll need a special wrench and 'anti-seize' stuff for the treads.
Oh yes, and this is relevant. The time-to-change interval on these sensors is 100,000 miles. I had my first failure right after 100k and this second one at 105k. So, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.
