If the oxygen sensor in Your 2010 Mazda3 fails to register voltage under normal conditions, it can trigger a P0130 trouble code. This code is quite common and typically not too costly to repair. An OBD-II scanner is utilized to identify the specific sensor that requires replacement. For instance, if the issue lies in Bank 1, it means there is a problem with the sensor in the first cylinder, necessitating knowledge of the vehicle's firing order to swap it out. Sensor 1, which is often the culprit, is the initial sensor in a series that runs from the exhaust manifold to the exhaust pipe. Common signs of a faulty O2 sensor include rough engine operation, foul-smelling exhaust, and failed emissions tests. The average price to replace one of these sensors in a Mazda3 ranges from $280 to $320, inclusive of labor costs.
High voltage bank 2 trouble code on an OBD2 reader will display as either P-103 or 0104, indicating a low voltage issue.
Issues with the oxygen sensor in a 2010 Mazda 3 could cause the vehicle to experience a lean fuel mixture, resulting from an incorrect ratio of oxygen to fuel.
