What causes P0136 code?
Your Engine Control Module (ECM) uses the voltage levels provided by your O2 sensors to regulate your engine’s fuel injector pulse. If you are seeing code P0136, it means that the O2 sensor behind your catalytic converter on bank 1 is malfunctioning.
What does code po141 mean?
O2 sensor heater circuit
What the P0141 code means. P0141 is the OBD-II generic code indicating the Engine Control Module (ECM) has tested the O2 sensor heater circuit and detects a problem with the bank 1 sensor 2 oxygen sensor heater circuit.
What does the O2 sensor code p0136 mean?
A code P0136 gets set when on-board diagnostics detects a malfunction with the O2 sensor behind the catalytic converter on bank 1. Code P0136 means that the Bank 1 oxygen sensor is not operating correctly. What Does the P0136 Code Mean? Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0136 stands for “O2 Sensor Circuit (Bank 1, Sensor 2).”
What does it mean when Bank 1 oxygen sensor is not working?
Oxygen sensors allow the ECM to determine the amount of oxygen in the car’s exhaust stream. A code P0136 gets set when on-board diagnostics detects a malfunction with the O2 sensor behind the catalytic converter on bank 1. Code P0136 means that the Bank 1 oxygen sensor is not operating correctly.
What does a p0136 b1s2 mean on a catalytic converter?
Too much voltage can cause components to overheat and potentially suffer damage. A P0136 B1S2 means that the sensor located behind the catalytic converter is having this problem.
What should I do if my O2 sensor is not working?
The key is to inspect the system thoroughly, starting with the O2 sensor. The first step is to verify the circuit voltage yourself to see if it’s actually outside specifications. If the voltage is fine, the issue may be the sensor. When a sensor is broken or dirty, it may not be able to function properly. You can clean or replace one fairly simply.
