Oxygen Sensor May Fail Due to Leaking Power Steering Pump on Nissan Maxima
Problem overview
Oxygen sensor failures are common due to fluid leaks from the power steering pump. The power steering pump typically leaks directly onto the sensor and causes the wiring to fail. If the leaks are not repaired when the oxygen sensor is replaced, the sensor will fail again.
