Default Melted o2 wires

Well my car would throw the o2 sensors on and off and just figured the plug wasnt getting a good connection but lately the check engine light has been staying on.

Had some time to do an oil change and decided to get under the car to look at it and found out one of the oxygen sensor wires fell out of its hanger and melted onto the exhaust.

This sounds like a simple fix by just replacing the o2 sensor but the part that has melted is the actual plug that goes to the sensor and that is attached to the cars wiring harness.

I am currently getting 3 codes, pcm P0128, P0135, P0155, all current.

P0135 Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) Heater Circuit Bank 1 Sensor 1
P0155 Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) Heater Circuit Bank 2 Sensor 1

Does this mean both of the sensors arent being read? My car has LG longtubes and no cats. Would the best way to fix this problem by splicing the wires back into the o2 sensor??


Also is the P0128 a stuck thermostat??

Thanks! That helped me a ton.

Now I'm not completely sure if this is the right product, could have sworn my o2 harness plug was grey and not black, not sure if itll make a difference just hope its the same size.
