Smog check failed
Hello, I recently failed a smog check. The reasons were OBD Evap, OXY SNSR and OXY SNSR Heat. I tried using the search feature but couldn’t find anything that could help my issue. I was wondering if changing the oxygen sensor would help with two of the issues and also, how would I be able to fix the OBD Evap problem in order to pass smog?
Neither the check engine nor the t/c lights were on so I thought I wouldn’t have issues passing the smog. Not the I feel the t/c light would cause problems but I felt confident not seeing lights on my dashboard LOL
The car is a 2006 2.2L and it’s being smogged in Nevada. Thank you, I appreciate any advice and help.

You could change the O2 sensors and the EVAP part under the hood at the drivers side of the engine. They do get cruddy and start to fail after 12 years.
But I’d get the actual codes, post them here and we can go from there.
It could be the flex pipe failed, amongst other things.
