Have you considered a different defouler? I think I read somewhere on here that the code *could* mean that the sensor is not getting enough of a reading from the exhaust flow, therefore the low reading nature of the code. I got the same code, as well as the "stuck rich" code (can't remember the code number), and plan to try a new, shorter angled defouler before I drop the cash on a new sensor.

Funny thing is, I can tell just before I'm going to get the cel... droning in 3-4k range gets louder and mushy sounding. It happens periodically, and eventually goes away after a few days. good luck.
