O2 Sensor Heater Circuit (Bank 2 Sensor 3)
Key terms: Oxygen sensor: measures oxygen in the exhaust gas · Mass air flow sensor: measures the air going into the engine · Bank 2: the side of the engine containing cylinder 2 · SAE J2012: the standard generic code list · Powertrain: engine, transmission and emissions
1What it means in plain English
This code is in the fuel, air and oxygen sensor range, which also includes coolant temperature faults.
2Common causes
- Dirty or faulty mass air flow sensor
- Vacuum or intake air leak
- Weak fuel pump or clogged fuel filter
- Faulty fuel injector
- Faulty oxygen sensor
- Wiring or connector fault
3Can I drive?
Have it diagnosed if the engine runs badly or the code keeps returning. Because this range includes coolant temperature sensors, watch the temperature gauge: if it climbs into the red, or the engine overheats or stalls, stop safely and get professional help.
This page gives general information. It is not professional advice. For a definite diagnosis and a repair quote, ask a qualified mechanic to inspect the car.
