P0133 - O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

DTC DESCRIPTION P0133 - O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT SLOW RESPONSE (BANK 1 SENSOR 1)

Description:  The PCM monitors oxygen sensor response time by commanding a calibrated fuel control routine. This routine sets the air fuel ratio to a calibrated limit to produce a predictable oxygen sensor signal amplitude. This DTC sets when the oxygen sensor signal does not reach the predicted amplitude within a predetermined response time.
Possible Causes: 
  • Exhaust leaks
  • Incorrect fueling
  • Mass airflow (MAF) sensor (if equipped)
  • Intake air leaks
  • Contaminated universal heated oxygen sensor bank 1, sensor 1 (HO2S11) (if equipped)
  • Contaminated HO2S11 (if equipped)
  • Deteriorating universal HO2S11 (if equipped)
  • Deteriorating HO2S11 (if equipped)
