KS or O2???

How can i find out if there any stored codes on my ecu? should i put it in diagnostic mode? will that check all the sensors and post any problems? cause I hear all the time about KS and O2's goin bad on maxima and making a huge difference in performance once replaced!!! Is there a way to clean my O2's or KS if they aren't dead, but just dirty and get false readings maybe? TB cleaner maybe?? I dunno, in either case, I feel like my car has been slowing down and loosing power below 3K...and my mileage is dropping as well? all sources are pointing towards KS, but could it be one of the O2's? what do these symptoms sound most like? is there a way to check if my KS is bad without checking it with an Ohm meter?

Read the ECU codes. If you see both O2 and KS codes, fix the O2 first.
