Asked by Papasal1 Apr 29, 2015 at 03:17 PM about the 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser GT Wagon FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Just replaced my timing belt. Mechanic said that it had jumped two teeth! Engine had
come on many times before and made the car run awful! Now new belt and O2 sensor,
water pump. It seems fine, but all my sensors haven't set yet. How many miles do you
have to go before this happens

Light back on after 50 miles ish. Car stalls. Fuel pump works fine, codes say it's the o2 heater hi, ( just replaced ). Multiple misfires, IAC lo, then won't start or worse just stalls. Insane, spent too much money already. Funny thing is that it ran flawlessly for the last two days? ?

5 months 5 shops, 2 sets of new 02 sensors, PCM rebuilt, STILL get the engine light on after 32 miles that has 2 codes : P 0032 and P 0038 which in my book means High heater curcit bank 1 sensor 1 , and High heater curcit bank 1 sensor 2. SOOOOO, I must have a bare or broken wire in the circuit. Anybody have a diagram of this?

Check voltage and grounds. Dealership said that it may be or is the catalytic converter. He was wrong. A small fender bender in the front end pinched the wiring. I regrounded them and presto check engine light went off. I've driven approx 25 miles and still clear. Good luck! p.s. my OBD II showed same codes and data. Also, shopkey.pro will give you electrical diagrams.
