As the title reads, I replaced both O2 sensors and I'm still getting codes. Any ideas?

Did you disconnect the battery before putting the new ones in? If not, do that for at least 5 minutes then see if it still throws them.

I did not do that, But I did clear the codes from the computer after I replaced them and they came right back. Does clearing the codes do the same thing?

Even if you clear the codes I don't think the computer recognized the swap between the old and new sensors.

Ok, I'll go try that and see how it does. Thanks for the quick response. I'll get back to you when I know more.

OK, just went out, unplugged the battery for 30 min, plugged it back in, started the car. In three seconds, the CEL came back on the code is 0032. Any ideas?

So that code means the heater control circuit is running high, is it possible that this could be a manufacturer defect in the O2 sensor?
