P2627

O2 Sensor Pumping Current Trim Circuit Low Bank 1 Sensor 1

On a wide-band (broadband) O2 sensor, the trim resistor circuit that calibrates the pumping current is reading low on bank 1 sensor 1. Air-fuel feedback gain is wrong, causing rich or lean offsets.

  • Check engine light: Yes
  • Emissions related: Yes
  • Repair difficulty: medium

Symptoms

  • Check engine light on
  • Increased fuel consumption
  • Possible rough idle or hesitation
  • Failed emissions test

Common causes

Ordered by how often each turns out to be the cause.

  • Short in the calibration trim resistorCommon
  • Water intrusion in the sensor connectorPossible
  • Connector pins corroded - high contact resistanceLess likely

Parts involved

  • Oxygen Sensor Wideband B1s1
  • Sensor Calibration Resistor
  • Wiring Harness
