So after you reconnect the battery P0031 comes up right away? And if you reset does it come back?

I've been getting P0031 the past few months. But after reseting it takes a while to come back, not right away. P0031 is usually the a/f sensor (front "o2"). I just replaced mine like a week ago. They usually last 8-9 years for me & it's been 8 yrs since I last changed it.

 

You got the P/n for that senor? I need to replace it too

 

I used

$146 Denso 234-9001 Upstream Air Fuel Ratio Oxygen Sensor with 10.6” 4-Wire Harness, for Auto Trans Equipped Vehicles

Denso 234-9001.

Got it from Rock Auto with the TW discount. Cheaper for me than from Amazon because of tax. I'm sure you know but careful with the ones on ebay or Amazon 3rd party sellers. If it's well under $100 it's probably fake. Fake ones will look like a common sensor with hex base screwed into a flange base.

 

Yes it comes on automatically even after resetting it.

I don’t think mines bad to be honest because the check engine light wouldn’t illuminate unless I disconnected the battery

 

P0031 is for the heater circuit for the sensor. You can verify if the heater circuit is completely bad on the sensor with a multi meter by checking continuity across the 2 black wires.

 

Sweet I’ll do that tomorrow! Thank ya sir.

It did sit for like 3 months though, sadly but my diesel 3500hd gave me better gas mileage then my taco lol

 

Checking continuity will only tell you if the heater completely failed. It could also be out of spec too. It should be within range of resistance. Should be able to find out how many ohms it should be online.

 

@zero4 you on drugs?

Different drugs though, those aren't the sounds I hear.

 

I told myself that Miguel. I told myself that every time I saw a Tacoma or 4Runner.

Now I have four bins full of parts I don’t have the motivation or time to sell.

 

I once filled up a ziplock bag full of bolts and screws (that came off of parts I was buying) and they’d charge me $1 for every fastener. I raised enough stink (respectfully) that the cashier let me have them.

 

We have a koi pond in my backyard that my dad is really into. There’s this Koi store in Castro Valley where we get the Koi from.

I never realized how damn expensive Koi is. Babies were like $80 each. The bigger ones were $300-400 EACH, and the biggest ones were in the thousands. There was this giant white one and the employee told me it previously sold at Auction for $10,500.

 

I think I asked but I never saw your answer. Where does your frame rust come from? The ocean, right? I don’t think they salt roads in Hawaii last time I checked.

 

There’s a TW discount for RockAuto?

 

Does anyone want manual hub CV axles? They’re aftermarket, unknown mileage, needs some new boots. Good trail spares.

Pay shipping and they’re yours. Before I chuck them on the 24th.

 

Yeah, it's only 5% but better than nothing on their fair prices & good service. There's a sticky in the Rock Auto forum.

 

No way. That’s cool of them.

They have the weirdest commercials. Like 90’s animation and cheesy singing.

 

Lol, yeah they do. I haven't seen one in a while but I remember the weird animated ones.

BTW the coupons expire but they always update them.
