      sensor identification

      Son in law just bought a 2009 Aveo for daughter. Throwing tons of codes. Found wires damaged to one sensor but unsure what it is. Located on Passenger front side of motor just above power steering pump right next to camshaft belt cover. hidden below that two more wires that are damaged go down behind pump. What do they go to? What sensors would they be and what codes would be normal to see?
      throwing codes mostly related to O2 sensors like P0036,P0141,P0138,P0054,P2270. I have suspension that Cat converter was removed but some others like
      P0114, P0102,P0113, P0599 are leading to other sensors.

      Have to replace valve cover gasket but otherwise seems pretty good except for codes

      Car has all new control arms, tie rods, steering rack, Sway bar links and body and interior nice. He paid 800 for it with 135,000 miles .

      Did you look up those codes?
      Sorry I'd need a picture to tell you what sensor is what.
      If the cat is missing, its right under the manifold up on the front of the engine, We will see it if you snap us a shot.

      Ok trying to add photo. Brown wires to sensor that is directly above steering pump near top of valve cover are damaged as are the green and yellow wires that go behind steering pump. Fault codes are O2 sensor heater circuit malfunction sensor 2, MAF circuit low, Air Intake Temp, Thermostat heater contro circuit high, O2 sensor circuit high voltage.
      Not having any luck adding photo
      No idea how to do it

      the one on the left side of picture just above the power steering pump is the one with shorted wiring and the other wiring damaged are the ones right there also.

      initially I would have guessed that would be your cam sensor and had nothing to do with the codes youre having.

      Could be coolant temp but I think that one is down on the right side near that orange dipstick.

      From what I can tell, sounds like you've got multiple issues going on. Maybe start with fixing those damaged wires first before replacing any sensors? Just my thought.
