When to use fault code p2033 in OBD II?
OBD II fault code P2033 is a generic code that is defined as “Exhaust gas temperature (EGT) sensor 2, bank 1 – circuit high”, and is set when the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) detects an abnormally high voltage in control circuit of the #2 exhaust gas temperature sensor (or in the sensor itself) that is fitted to the exhaust system of bank 1.
Why do I get p2033 on my EGT sensor?
Nonetheless, some common causes of code P2033 could include the following- Damaged, burnt, shorted, disconnected, or corroded wiring and/or connectors Short circuit between the reference voltage circuit and battery positive Abnormally high system voltages, but note that this condition will be indicated by a dedicated code, or series of codes
What does the code p2033 DTC stand for?
This code means that the circuit has a high voltage condition. Code P2032 is a similar code which states that the circuit shows “low” voltage. Both relate to the condition of the sensor and the correction is the same for both. This P2033 DTC refers to Bank #1 (which is the side of the engine that contains cylinder #1).
Where is the p2033 temperature sensor located on a catalytic converter?
In these cases, code P2033 will be stored as a “pending” code. Where is the P2033 sensor located? The image above shows the typical location of exhaust gas temperature sensors on either side of a catalytic converter. Note the presence of other, unrelated sensors that must not be confused with the exhaust temperature sensors.
