Default P0141 and P0161 just came up at the same time

Hey guys,

I was driving my car to work the other day and I threw a couple codes. The codes are P0141 and P0161. The codes are for 02S Heater Circuit Bank 1 Sensor 2 Malfunction and 02S Heater Circuit Bank 2 Sensor 2 Malfunction. Does anyone know what these mean. Does this mean my rear O2's need to be replaced? It is a little odd they would both go out at the same time, I have not had any work done to my car and nothing has been changed recently.

Any help greatly appreciated.

if they both turned on at the same time, its probably something with the wiring.

Hmm, ok I don't know how that could be unless I had some faulty wiring from the factory. I reset the codes with my predator, hopefully they dont come back.

Diagnostic chart for two 02 codes simultaneously says first thing to check is the H02S fuse for an open. Usually an open ENG SEN fuse will throw P0102 though. Since you have a predator see what they're reading on real time data.
