Maintenance/Repairs

I have a 1999 Honda Accord LX and the engine suddenly died when I was driving.

After diagnosed, it showed that the oxygen sensor needs to be replaced. After replacing the oxygen sensor, the problem still exist. Could it be the ignition or the mass airflow sensor having problem?

Please advise. Thank you.

There may be a problem with the ignition. Check to see if the plugs are getting spark when you crank the engine. There may also be a broken timing belt causing the trouble.

After diagnosed, it showed … Did someone actually diagnose it or did they look at the CEL code an assumed it was the sensor and not what the sensor was sensing?

See the responses to the post, “Engine Quits While Driving” http://community.cartalk.com/posts/list/1/2126254.page#2618404 . The same things apply to your Honda.

If you go to Search, above, and put in “Keywords” something about a Honda stalling, you’ll get many similar posts, and similar responses. The basic electric/electronic design is the same for, at least, the last 20 years.
