Kubistar Oxygen Sensor Error

My 2003 Nissan Kubistar with a gasoline engine is throwing a fit. The check engine light is on, there's an error code about the oxygen sensor, and I'm burning more fuel than usual. I suspect it's a faulty sensor, but all the connections look okay to me.

Whoa, sounds familiar! I had almost the exact same thing happen with my Kubistar. Is the error specifically saying it's the heater element in the oxygen sensor?

Yeah, the error code points to the oxygen sensor heater. Any idea what I should be looking for specifically? I'm decent with car components, but this is bugging me. I'm getting so frustrated!

Okay, so it was the same for me. I checked all the wiring, seemed fine. Honestly, I just ended up biting the bullet and taking it to a workshop. They found a dodgy plug connection, fixed it, and cleared the code. Cost about 95€.

I was hoping it wouldn't come to that, but I suppose I'll book it in. Appreciate the help!
