Anyone had experience with this code?  It comes on intermitently on my 2002 2.0L vitara.

Thanks all.

Meaning the sensor itself is bad, or something is causing it to show circuit low?

Those things are friggin' expensive! :o

Couldn't tell you either way but I was getting that code on my '96 and I replaced that sensor and the code went away.  With as corroded and nasty as they and the exhaust looked I figured it wouldn't hurt to replace them anyways.

Yeah, things are g-d gold. :P

Thanks for the input.

I'm going to try and do a tune up first (needs it anyway) and see if that makes it go away.  It's worth a try.

If it keeps popping up, I'll replace the ...Agghhhh!.....sensor.

Holy crap they're proud of those...
