The lines will harden and crack under long periods of time, especially if the car is not driven very often. Thankfully this is a cheap and quick repair. The window switches on the center console were badly places by the designers of these vehicles. They are located right next to the cup holder. As a result they are very susceptable to spilt drinks and coffee. Oxygen sensor measures the amount of the oxygen in the exhaust gases. This information is used by the automotive engine computer system to control engine operation. There are few types of oxygen sensors available, but here we will consider most commonly used - voltage-generating type. Front (upstream) oxygen sensor. Front or upstream oxygen sensor located in the exhaust manifold or in the downpipe before catalytic converter. It monitors the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gases and provides the "feedback" signal to the engine computer.
If the sensor senses high level of oxygen, the engine is running too lean (not enough fuel). The engine computer adds more fuel. If the level of oxygen in the exhaust is too low, the computer decides that the engine is running too rich (too much fuel) and subtracts fuel accordingly. This process is continuous - the engine computer constantly cycles between slightly lean and slightly rich to keep the air/fuel ratio at the optimum level. Rear or downstream oxygen sensor located after catalytic converter. It monitors the efficiency of the catalytic converter. Oxygen sensor problems are common. Faulty oxygen sensor may cause poor gas mileage, emission test failure and various driveability problems (hesitation, poor acceleration, surging, etc.).

Why my Check Engine light comes on? If the front brakes have been squealing loudly, you may need pads only. If the car or brake-peddle has been shaking when braking, you'll need to have the rotors resurfaced (called "turning"), or replace them. If the car pulls to one side while braking, but stays straight otherwise, you may need calipers. This is a sign of damaged pads caused by leaking brake fluid, oil or grease leaks onto the pads. If the brakes have a grinding noise, this means rotors may have been ruined by metal to metal contact (of completely worn or broken pads). Buy more parts than you think you'll need. You can always return what you don't use (keep your receipt and boxes and parts clean/undamaged). If you get caught without something while the car is apart, you may not have transportation to go buy anything. Park the car in a clean, solid, well-lit place. Block the rear wheels with something heavy (like bricks or lumber which is small enough to jam under the wheels) to prevent the car from rolling or sliding while it's jacked up.
Apply the emergency brake (emergency brakes only hold the rear, not the front wheels). Loosen the lug nuts before jacking the car up (do not remove lug nuts yet). If you skip this step, loosening the lugs may be very annoying, if not impossible. It is also extremely dangerous to loosen lug nuts after a car has been jacked up. Jack the car up with a sturdy jack on a solid surface (such as a floor jack if you have concrete to work on) and lower it very slowly and carefully onto jackstands. Caution: a floor jack's wheels need to be able to roll and the jack needs to travel a little and so it must not embed (sink) into a soft floor or surface. Finish removing the wheels, and lay the wheels under the car, just to the rear of the jackstands. In case the car slips off the stands, those wheels may prevent you, your arms or head from being caught under a falling car (preventing the car from falling to the ground) if the jack stands fall over.
