Stop driving
Continuing to drive risks injury or major mechanical damage. Shut the engine off when it is safe to do so.
O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank 2, Sensor 1)
This code is in our catalogue but has not yet been through editorial review, so the guidance below is limited to what our structured data supports. We publish deeper diagnostic content only after a code has been reviewed — here is why.
Same condition as P0132 but on bank 2. The upstream sensor reports a continuously rich condition or has a short to supply voltage.
A trouble code records what a control module measured. It does not identify which part failed. Test before replacing anything.
- Safe to drive
- Continuing to drive risks injury or major mechanical damage. Shut the engine off when it is safe to do so.
- Urgency
- Stop driving
- Will it pass emissions
- No
- Check engine light
- Solid
- Clearing the light
- A completed drive cycle is normally required before the monitor re-runs and the light can clear.
- Increased fuel consumption
- Possible rough idle or hesitation
Many vehicles show no symptom at all beyond the warning light. The absence of a symptom does not mean the fault is not real.
| # | Cause | How often | Component |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bank 2 running rich (leaking injector, high fuel pressure) | Very common | — |
| 2 | Signal wire shorted to supply voltage | Common | — |
| 3 | Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance | Occasional | — |
Ordering reflects how often each cause is responsible in general, not a probability for your vehicle. Confirm by testing.
