Ford F Oxygen Sensor Fault

Anyone else experienced oxygen sensor issues on a 2011 Ford F diesel with increased fuel consumption? OBD reader points to the oxygen sensor; cable and plug connection seem suspect.

Similar thing happened with my Ford F: check engine light, increased fuel consumption. Have you checked the catalytic converter? Issues there can throw off sensor readings. Is the oxygen sensor giving you the error?

Thanks, I haven't checked the catalytic converter. I'll add it to the list. Yes, the error code specifically points to the oxygen sensor. Did you end up replacing the entire sensor or was it something simpler?

In my case, the error also pointed to the oxygen sensor, but the workshop discovered a faulty plug connection. I suggest visiting a workshop to verify the problem.

Thanks, I appreciate the confirmation that it could be the connection. I'll take it to the workshop. They quoted me 95€ for the repair. Fingers crossed it's just that!
