Does that sound kosher?
Just because you get a code for a sensor doesn't necessarily mean the sensor is bad.
Depending on the code it could be any issue related to what the particular sensor can read.
For instance the wiring to the sensor could be faulty.
just like a dirty air filter can cause a MAF sensor code. Does not mean the sensor is bad
