I will venture to say that if the wiring looks OK, the O2 sensor indicated needs to be replaced. There are 4 sensors in all, 2 for pre-catalytic converter (CC), 2 for post-CC. Assuming you have a SHO, bank 1 sensor 1 would be the pre-CC sensor on the firewall side of the engine.

If you have access to a scan tool with datastream mode (or the free Torque app and OBD-II dongle) you can monitor the B1S1 sensor voltage real time to see if it's slow to respond, not changing, or railed to either 0.1V or 0.9V which could help you determine if it's likely a sensor, vacuum leak, or wiring issue respectively.

Wanted to charge me $95.00 per hr.plus $170.00 for the sensor. Had a friend that had a multi stage code reader and verified the bad sensor.Searched the internet and found this company oemparts123.com had Motorcraft parts for sale .bought the sensor for $120.00 including shipping(2 day priority ship).The friend charged me $60.00 total for testing and labor.The web site i mentioned i found out was for Don Wood Ford in Athens, Oh. Would recommend them if you need oem parts.
