Code 1150 for a Lexus means the O2 sensor for bank two sensor one is not working. It could be a problem with the sensor or the wiring harness. Bank two is on the side of the engine with cylinder two, and sensor one is in front of the catalytic converter.

The first and last code are your start and stop so you can ignore them the P1130 and P1150 are your two front oxygen sensors( pre cats ) bank one and two. Depending on your millage it sounds like it is time for a little maintence. Normally they should be changed at or around 60,000 kms

SOURCE: Rear Main Seal Leak

To replace the seal, the mechanic will have to either lift the engine or lower the transmission. You will get much better pricing going to a transmission shop (e.g. AAMCO) and getting a quote from them to replace the seal.

SOURCE: rear main seal leaks..does this affect transmission??

A leaking rear main seal will not cause your transmission to leak.

The transmission has its own seal and should not leak because of the engine rear main seal.

Due to the labor involved in replacing the rear main seal on the engine, it is best if you replace the front transmission seal at the same time if possible.

Installation varies on different vehicles but the principles are the same.

SOURCE: Check engine light is on

no such thing as a catalytic computer... there is a catalytic converter ... part of the exhaust system so they may now be "guessing" that it's an O2 sensor. take the car to autozone... they will scan the codes for free.... post the codes here tho the lads and lasses there are pretty clever and will probably tell you what the codes mean.

SOURCE: How hard is it to replace the rear main seal in a '87 Samurai?

Is it a 4x4 if it is you would have to seperate the tranny from transfer case and drive shaft tp change out seal.If not just drop the drive shaft and replace seal.We are talking about the rear seal at the end of the tranny.

2001 Toyota Sienna CEL displayed code P1150 & P0420 what could be the problem

Mine is a 2001 Sienna LE. I got the P0420 code and the dealer want to replace an engine control computer for $1600. I've found posts that say you can replace your oxygen sensors, which still costs around $100 each. The P0420 seems to be emissions related. When my check engine light comes on, I run the highest grade, no ethanol gas, and usually within a couple of tanks, the light goes off again. The last time it happened about 2 wks ago, I put in the 93 octane no ethanol premium and a can of Seafoam and within a half a tank, the light went out. Your problem might be more serious, and I don't know what the 1150 code is, but so far that's worked for me.

My car came up with a P1150 code for my lexus rx 300. what does that mean?

Tests/Procedures: 1. With the sensor disconnected and the key on, check the voltage at the wire harness side of the connector. The Black wire should have 12 volts the Orange wire and the White wire should be approximately 3 volts.

2. Reconnect the sensor connector and check the voltage on the Black wire on start up. It should remain battery voltage. The Orange wire and the White wire should vary slightly in voltage from 3-3.3 volts but the sensors will not change much.

3. Install a new sensor. Potential Causes: Defective Air Fuel (A/F) Ratio Sensor
Tech Tips: This is a common issue with the air fuel ratio sensors. The firewall side will fail and the technician will install a new sensor and then a few days later a code for the other sensor will appear. Always replace these sensors as a pair.

The check engine light produced codes p1150 and p1155 on a 2000 toyota avalon xls.

All cars sold in the US after 1995 use the same on board diagnotics called OBD-II. The codes are the same. Search OBM-II error codes and you'll get a listing.

P1150 Air/Fuel Sensor Circuit Range/Performance. (cylinder bank 1 Sensor 2)

P1150 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
water or corrosion in the O2 sensor connector, loose terminals in the connector, wiring burnt on exhaust components, open or short in the wiring due to rubbing on engine components, holes in exhaust allowing unmetered oxygen into exhaust system, unmetered vacuum leak at the engine, bad O2 sensor or bad PCM.

P1155 Air/Fuel Sensor Heater Circuit. (cylinder bank 1 Sensor 2)
P1155 may mean that one or more of the following has happened: O2 Heater element resistance is high, Internal short or open in the heater element or O2 heater circuit wiring high resistance

Solution :Replace oxygen sensor and see if the problem goes away.
