Dodge Ram Throwing 02 sensor codes.
Well I disconnected the cable and turned on the headlights for 30 seconds.. I let the truck idle for about 5 minutes and no check engine light, but as soon as I took it down the road the light came on and it began to sputter a little bit again..
I would check all the ground connections. Even though everything looks connected, corrosion can keep sensors and such getting a good ground. I was getting a p0138 code and it was from a bad ground.

Ok, I will check all grounds again.. But I just put the scanner back on it and I am no longer getting code PO138.. (The down-stream 02 sensor).. im just getting PO132.. (Up-Stream 02 sensor being shorted out)...
Ok so I disconnected the negative on the battery and cleaned up the terminals and tightened some grounds.. I found a couple wires that were zip tied to the tranny that looked like they may had been smashed after the truck was lifted so i cut those loose.. Also made sure both 02 sensors were plugged in fully and properly.. I erased the codes with my scanner and the light hasn't came back on yet and appears to be running smoother so far.. It sputtered a little when I first started down the road but hasn't since.. We'll see what happens..
