To fix this problem, check the sensor wiring and connections for damage. If the sensor circuit is OK, and the DTC(s) come back after clearing them and doing a short test-drive, replace the A/F sensor. The replacement A/F sensors in Honda parts stock are an improved version over the original sensor.
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 P0134 Honda 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 Air/Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor (Sensor 1) is activated by warming the element with a heater and by maintaining a steady high temperature to accurately calculate the air/fuel ratio. If the heater does not properly heat the element, the A/F Sensor (Sensor 1) does not activate, and the exhaust emissions deteriorate. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the A/F Sensor (Sensor 1) internal resistance.
1. When the A/F Sensor (Sensor 1) does not activate for a set time after the A/F sensor (sensor 1) heater is turned on (with high A/F Sensor (Sensor 1) internal resistance), a malfunction of the A/F sensor (sensor 1) heater is detected, and a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is stored.
2. When the A/F Sensor (Sensor 1) heater cycles ON and OFF for a set time, and the resistance remains high when the heater is ON, a malfunction of the A/F Sensor (Sensor 1) heater is detected, and a DTC is stored.
