Codes P1130 & P0134

[hitlayers]

This is strange because I got the codes yesterday since the check engine light came on and my fiancee desperately needs an inspection and the codes P1130 & P0314 came up, looked it up in the repair manual we have here and it's giving me a different description, can someone please clear this up for me and tell me exactly what needs to be fixed or is there anyway to reset the light to make it go off? Thanks!

P0134: Passenger side pre-catalytic converter heated oxygen sensor malfunction.

P1130: Swirl control valve solenoid valve.

You need to troubleshoot/repair the heated oxygen sensor first. You will likely need to replace the faulty oxygen sensor to clear the first code. You may be able to clean the oxygen sensor with some gas just to get rid of the code without spending money on a new sensor. There is no way to clear the code and pass the emissions test. Once you clear the code it will put the system into a 'NOT-READY' state and that is still an automatic failure.

Thanks for your response, so the first one i assume would be the front right and where is the other one located and what kind of sensor is it? Thanks!

The second one is not a sensor. It's a solenoid valve that controls the swirlvalves in each intake passage. The solenoid lets engine vacuum get to theswirl valves, opening them. Check the engine control section of the FSM.

Sorry to be oblivious to this but I have no clue what your talking about. My fiancee just got her head gasket fixed along with two new cylinder heads, could this be something that they did wrong? How do I go about fixing this? Thanks.

Second one: Swirl control valve solenoid valve.

its possible they left something loose id take it back to them an get them to check it

OK so I found a buddy that has an OBDII diagnostic scanner and he cleared my check engine light, if I go to get it inspected with these codes, what are the chances it would pass?

There's a 0% chance you will pass. Even though you cleared the code and the SES light is off, the ECM is running tests on the O2 sensors to see if they are functional and to see if the system is running properly. Once you take it to get it inspected they will hook up a computer to the OBDII port and see that the system is in a NOT-READY state and it will fail.

Even if your O2 sensors were brand new and functioning perfectly, once you reset the DTC code it will check to see if everything is working properly to see if the issue was repaired. Even brand new O2 sensors would fail until the system put them into a READY state.

Wow, I thought disconnecting the battery would give me a 0% chance, dammit, this sucks. Thanks for your response!

My recommendation would be to drive around for a few days and see if the SES light comes back on. If it doesn't, then the issue may have gone away temporarily and you can take it to get inspected to pass. If it does come back on then you definitely need to replace your O2 sensor to pass inspection.
