Check the 'Possible Causes' listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector pins.
The cost to diagnose the P0139 Acura code is 1.0 hour of labor. The diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops vary depending on the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. Most auto repair shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The Secondary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2)) detects the oxygen content in the exhaust gas downstream of the three-way catalytic converter (TWC) during stoichiometric air/fuel ratio feedback control. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) controls the air/fuel ratio with the Air/Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor (Sensor 1) output voltage to optimize the TWC's efficiency. When the Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) does not change during lean air/fuel ratio when the throttle is closed, after the full current is applied to the Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) heater, and output remains within the specified range continuously, the PCM detects a malfunction and stores a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
