When the check engine light appears in your Nissan, it is important to immediately pull over and avoid driving further. Continuing to drive with the check engine light on can lead to additional damage to your vehicle due to a detected fault within the system that requires attention. Once you have safely stopped, you can utilize an OBD II scan tool on your car. If you come across code P1031 in your Nissan, it indicates an issue with the air-to-fuel ratio sensor heater circuit. This problem can cause your car to run roughly as it struggles to determine the correct amount of fuel and air to add to the engine.

    Error Code P1148 in Nissan pertains to a faulty Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 on Bank 1. Meanwhile, Error Code P1031 indicates a malfunctioning Air Fuel Ratio Sensor 1 on Bank 1. If these same error codes (P1148 and P1031) persist after reprogramming the ECM of your Nissan Quest, it is essential to pinpoint these components for further inspection.

    Once you encounter the upstream O2 sensor code and lean fuel code, the next issue is likely to be a misfire. It is recommended to perform a compression leak down test or have a professional service shop do it for you. This is crucial as you may have a burnt, bent, or sticking exhaust valve, which would require significant repairs for your engine. It would be best to get rid of the vehicle as fixing these problematic Chinese-made parts can be extremely costly and challenging.
