Default Help with Codes

I'm preparing to move cross country at the end of the month. My car is throwing the following codes:

P0405 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation Sensor A Circuit Low
P0140 - Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected (Bank 1 Sensor 2)
P0137 - Sensor Circuit Low Voltage (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what needs to be fixed? I'm leaning towards the oxygen sensors.

Thanks in advance for your advise?

I would inspect the wiring and connections to both driver side o2 sensors. Also ck wiring and connections going to egr valve. With a test light connected to ground and ignition on, check for power at pink wire at both driver side o2 sensors. Then with test light connected to B+ c check grounds...black wires at sensors.. Inspect wiring near exhaust manifolds for possible open wires. If everything checks out, replace the sensors.

Thank you joshp14! I'll go purchase a test light and check out the wiring first. Thanks!
