What does the trouble code p0160 stand for?
Trouble code P0160 sets when the engine management computer does not detect any activity on the oxygen sensor circuit for bank 2 sensor 2. Generally, an oxygen sensor’s voltage will vary up and down. The first sensor in the exhaust varies voltage very quickly and the voltage variance is greater.
Why does my PCM set the code p0161?
There are a couple of reasons why the PCM could set the code P0161: 1 Faulty oxygen sensor 2 An issue with the oxygen sensor heater circuit (i.e., an open, a short, or high resistance) 3 An issue with the PCM
What causes a p0140 code on a heater?
The causes for a P0140 code are fairly few. They could be any of the following: Shorted heater circuit in O2 sensor. (Usually requires replacement of heater circuit fuse in fuse block also) Shorted signal circuit in O2 sensor. Melting of harness connector or wiring due to contact with exhaust system.
Can a faulty oxygen sensor trigger a p0141 code?
If your vehicle only has four cylinders, it will only have one bank and, typically, one downstream sensor, so it can’t trigger this code. Instead, a faulty downstream heated oxygen sensor will be set as P0141 or Oxygen Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1, Sensor 2).
What causes the p0140 OBD-II trouble code?
All our repairs are backed by our 12-month / 12,000-mile warranty. P0140 is the OBD-II generic code which indicates that the O2 sensor for Bank 1, Sensor 2 failed respond to the fuel cutoff or fuel enrichment signals by the Engine Control Module (ECM). What causes the P0140 code?
What’s the code for the bank 2 sensor?
I have a 2006 Hyundai Sonata 3.3L that was throwing a P0158 and a P0160 code. My code reader said it was for the O2 sensor in the Bank 2 Sensor 2 position. P0158 is high voltage, while P0160 is no activity. I swapped out the B2S2 sensor and reset the code via the too…
What is the diagnostic code for O2 sensor no activity?
P0140 is a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for “O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected (Bank 1, Sensor 2)”.
Trouble code P0160 sets when the engine management computer does not detect any activity on the oxygen sensor circuit for bank 2 sensor 2. Generally, an oxygen sensor’s voltage will vary up and down. The first sensor in the exhaust varies voltage very quickly and the voltage variance is greater.

What does it mean when your O2 sensor says no activity?
P0160 is a standard OBDII trouble code. It has the same meaning for any vehicle with OBDII, including the Chevy Silverado. When a vehicle has P0160, the PCM/ECM is not detecting any activity from the sensor. It doesn’t mean that the O2 sensor isn’t getting power, but that the voltage isn’t changing, which is the “no activity”.
