Tech notes
Though the Oxygen (O2) sensor, the Engine Control Module (ECM) has detected a lean system, which means that there is either not enough fuel or and excessive amount of air in the system. Start by checking for vacuum leaks.
When is the code detected?
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected bank 1 oxygen (O2) at its lean limit
