Heated Oxygen Sensor?

My mom's Ford Contour's SES light is coming on, and I had autozone run the ODBII code... P1131 is coming up, which has something to do with the HO2S (heated oxygen sensor). Anyone have any experience with this? or know what might be the issue? ... more importantly, is this a cheap or expensive repair? lol Car still runs okay, but my mom is a pain and I want to take care of it for her the right way. Thanks!

I'm leaning towards listening to the computer. When it say's blah blah is bad it's usually bad (or a bad connector) in either case you know what it is so replace it .

My SES just poped and I went to five different places looking for someone to read the code for me including Autozone... of course no one would do it and told me to check out the next place lol. So does anyone know a place around union county where they do this?

Car seems to be ok but sicne its under warranty I wanna make sure its something cheap that I don't have to bring up to a dealership to fix or if i do

Did you go to the Autozone on Rt 22?? I know for a fact they do it there... they might have just been lazy mofo's that didn't feel like it at the time. lol
