I had a CEL with code P, so I unscrewed the downstream O2 sensor, blew it out with compressed air and screwed it back in. That cleared the CEL. Total time was about 15 minutes, including setting jackstands to get underneath the car and disconnecting the battery to clear the light. Sort by Oldest first Oldest first Newest first Most reactions. Let us know after a while if it continues to no longer have the P I was hoping it was just fouled from burning oil. Any suggestions on the next step? Bad sensor or bad catalyst or something else? The cat converter is out of its threshold.

The P trouble code in a Toyota Prius is typically triggered by issues related to the catalytic converter and emissions system. Over time, the converter may become clogged or inefficient, leading to an insufficient reduction in emissions and triggering the P code. Additionally, exhaust leaks, damaged oxygen sensors, or faulty engine components can also contribute to the appearance of this trouble code. Oxygen Sensor — One can expect the code thrown when oxygen sensors on both sides of the exhaust display akin readings. The p Toyota Prius trouble code can trigger when the oxygen sensor is bad and displays a false reading.

P is a well-recognized error code within the automotive industry, notorious for its persistence. Luckily, this article is designed to guide you through understanding the implications of this error code, exploring its possible causes, and navigating potential fixes. Drawing on our experience, we acknowledge that resolving P can be challenging without appropriate knowledge. This complexity arises as the error can take a significant amount of time to reappear, even after parts replacement and code resetting. Throughout this blog post, we will address these issues and more, providing you with comprehensive insight into the P code. This could be attributed to a malfunctioning catalyst or potentially be a false alarm triggered by a defective O2 sensor. The engine control module ECM uses two O2 sensors, one in front, and one behind the catalytic converter to measure its efficiency. If the catalyst system efficiency is low, the P code will be triggered. In most cases, a P trouble code is caused by a bad catalytic converter. The most common cause of the P code is a faulty catalytic converter.

If you had a bunch oily smoke coating your cat, this should clean it up. Any help is appreciated! With time it can become clogged. It the after cat oxygen sensor when graphed is flat lined the cat is good. To get full-access, you need to register for a FREE account. Upstream sensor only monitors what the exhaust gasses look like before they enter the cat. The P code is just "catalyist system efficiency below threshold bank 1 ". No, create an account now. I just decided to try to swap bank 1 to bank 2 to see if the code follows, but the downstream on bank 2 has a short pigtale. Thank you.

This page is meant to help you troubleshoot the Toyota Camry P trouble code. A failing oxygen sensor or bad catalytic converter are the most common causes of P

If you had a bunch oily smoke coating your cat, this should clean it up. Its not an o2 sensor. I know it can be a knucklebuster, but That's about 5 yards mowed in today's dollar. To get full-access, you need to register for a FREE account. Would that cause the code? If so, how do you then narrow it down to the upstream or downstream o2 sensor? Isn't there an upstream before cat and downstream after cat? Check engine light code is p bank 1 cat efficiency or inefficiency Discussion in ' General Tundra Discussion ' started by kjeffer , Nov 19, This is an older thread, you may not receive a response, and could be reviving an old thread. If CEL returns and code P returns, this tells you that your code is not caused by a failing O2 sensor. Replaced the sensor but I kept getting PO codes that would return pretty much as soon as I cleared the code.
