P0139 Nissan: Understanding and Troubleshooting Fuel Injectors and Oxygen Sensor Issues

If your Nissan is experiencing a P0139 error code, this video is for you. We’ll provide two practical solutions to fix the error code right at home.

Firstly, use the Zeus app to scan your vehicle and identify the error code P0139. This code indicates that the powertrain control module has detected a potential issue with the signal from the rear oxygen sensor on bank one.

Method A: Fuel Injectors

The fuel injectors are located in the intake manifold and are responsible for spraying fuel directly at the intake valves. Start by inspecting the fuel injectors on the fuel rail for any leaks. When replacing them, ensure that the new injector comes with new seals and do not reuse the old ones. It’s important to change all the fuel injectors as a set to maintain engine performance. To prevent leaking, dip the new fuel injector into gasoline before installation.

Method B: The Oxygen Sensor

The oxygen sensor is typically located after the catalytic converter, with sensor number two being the downstream oxygen sensor behind the converter. Check the electrical connections, wire harness, and metal tabs for any damages. If any issues are found, replace the oxygen sensor.

After performing the repair, use the Zeus app to clear the error code and rescan your vehicle to ensure everything is functioning as expected.
