P0134 - O2 CIRCUIT NO ACTIVITY DETECTED (BANK 1, SENSOR 1)

Description:  The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) for a lack of movement concern. If the sensor signal value is not changing from the default value, the PCM commands an oscillating air/fuel ratio attempting to detect some movement in the signal value. The test fails when the PCM is unable to detect movement in the sensor signal while the air/fuel ratio is oscillating.
Possible Causes: 
  • Open UO2SPC circuit
  • Damaged universal HO2S
Diagnostic Aids:   
Application  Key On Engine Off  Key On Engine Running  Continuous Memory
