How do I fix my P0141 engine code?

What repairs can fix the P0141 code?

Clearing the fault codes and performing a road test to try and verify a failure.
Replacing the O2 sensor for bank 1 sensor 2.
Repairing or replacing the wiring or connection to the O2 sensor for bank 1 sensor 2.
Replacing the fuse to the heater circuit for the O2 sensor heater circuit.

What causes P0141 code?

Code P0141 occurs when the powertrain control module tests the downstream heated oxygen sensor’s heater circuit on Bank 1 and detects a short in the circuit or excessive resistance in the heater circuit.

What does the p0141 code on a VW Beetle mean?

P0141 VOLKSWAGEN Tech Notes. The code means that there is a problem with the heater element circuit of the heated oxygen sensor. The control module monitors how long it take the sensor to warm up and start sending an adequate signal. The code is triggered when the sensor is taking too long to warm up.

What does error code p0141 on O2 sensor mean?

Error code P0141 is described as Oxygen Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1, Sensor 2). This means there is a problem on the O2 sensor on bank 1, and it fails to decrease the time needed to enter closed loop. Error Code P0141 by definition means the heated circuit of the bank 1 O2 sensor reduces the time required to make a closed loop.

What does DTC p0141 stand for in heater?

DTC P0141 stands for “Oxygen Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1, Sensor 2).” It indicates a problem with the heater circuit of engine bank 1’s downstream O2 sensor. This code is part of a family of codes, listed as follows:
