Links Below: How to diagnose and correct GM O2 sensors Diagnostic Trouble Codes indicating a heater circuit problem with this 1997 GMC 1500 with the 5.7 (350 cid) engine: Multiple O2 sensor heater circuit failures, P0153 / P0141 / P0155 / P0161. Once corrected, I end up with another DTC, P0125: Insufficient Coolant Temperature for Closed Loop Fuel Control. This might cause additional O2 sensor problems.

The diagnosis process I use will work for all cars with 4-wire O2 sensors.
