Usually safe to drive short distances, but the fault will not clear itself and can worsen or fail an emissions test.
O2 Sensor Pumping Current Trim Circuit High 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.
The wide-band trim resistor circuit on bank 2 sensor 1 reads high. Air-fuel feedback gain on bank 2 is wrong, the controller cannot compensate the offset.
A trouble code records what a control module measured. It does not identify which part failed. Test before replacing anything.
- Safe to drive
- Usually safe to drive short distances, but the fault will not clear itself and can worsen or fail an emissions test.
- Urgency
- Diagnose soon
- Will it pass emissions
- No
- Check engine light
- Solid
- 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 | Open calibration trim resistor | Very common | — |
| 2 | Corroded sensor connector | Common | — |
| 3 | Supply wire pinched against B+ source | Occasional | — |
Ordering reflects how often each cause is responsible in general, not a probability for your vehicle. Confirm by testing.
