my vehicle has been down for one week now. what started out has correcting p0032 h o2 sensor has turned into a real ordeal. I replaced both o2 sensor, oil temperature sensor, spark plugs and wires. fuel is half a tank there is oil and other fluids topped off. everything is plugged in and getting power.

My buddy came by and used his mechanic level scanner, and it gave b1657, b1361, b 1382. The car was in an accident three or so years ago. I haven't had any issues with the car until now. My buddy advised me that it could either be the inertia control or one of the SRS codes.

It is imperative that I get my car up and running. It is my only source of income and my family's only vehicle.

Hi,

All of the codes are related to safety features that I'm sure you are already aware of. I have a question. Did this happen all at once or has it been slowly giving you trouble? I ask because I don't feel the codes you have would prevent it from running.

Have you checked to see if there is spark and fuel getting to the engine? If not, see if it starts for a couple of seconds using starting fluid. If it does and then stalls, we will know it is fuel related. If there is no change, confirm the spark plugs are getting spark.

Here is a link to help you with that:.
