Puedes seguir conduciendo con precaución

Descripción

This code indicates that an oxygen sensor on Bank 2 (the side of the engine opposite cylinder #1) is slow to switch from reading a rich fuel mixture to a lean one. This sensor helps the engine computer fine-tune fuel delivery for that bank.

Causas comunes

  • Faulty oxygen sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 2)
  • Exhaust leak
  • Wiring issue to the oxygen sensor
  • Contaminated oxygen sensor
  • Problem with the engine control module (ECM)

Síntomas

  • Check Engine Light is on
  • Reduced fuel economy
  • Increased emissions
  • Failed emissions test

Pasos de reparación

  1. 1 Check the wiring and connector to the Bank 2 Sensor 2 oxygen sensor for damage, corrosion, or loose connections and repair as needed.
  2. 2 Inspect the exhaust system near the Bank 2 Sensor 2 location for leaks, cracks, or loose connections and repair any leaks found.
  3. 3 Check for contamination on the oxygen sensor caused by oil burning, coolant leaks, or use of silicone-based sealants, and address the underlying cause.
  4. 4 Clear the diagnostic trouble code and drive the vehicle to see if the code returns, confirming the issue is persistent.
  5. 5 Replace the Bank 2 Sensor 2 (downstream) oxygen sensor if the wiring and exhaust are in good condition.
  6. 6 Have the engine control module (ECM) inspected and tested by a professional if the new oxygen sensor does not resolve the code.
