Intake Air O2 Sensor Circuit Bank 1
The ECM detects a generic fault on the intake air oxygen sensor signal circuit on bank 1. A drifted or sluggish lambda sensor lets the mixture run lean or rich without correction — fuel economy and emissions suffer immediately.
Affected components
- Intake air o2 sensor b1
- Intake air o2 sensor heater b1
- Wiring harness
- Ecm
Common causes
- High likelihood: Intake air O2 sensor failed
- Medium likelihood: Wiring or connector fault
Possible symptoms
- Check engine light on
- Increased fuel consumption
- Possible rough idle or hesitation
- Failed emissions test
Diagnostic notes
- The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
- This code can affect emissions
- A drive cycle may be required after repair
