P2630 Code - Oxygen Sensor Pumping Current Trim Circuit Low Bank 2 Sensor 1

Quick Answer

A resistor is installed in the Universal Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) connector for part to part variance. Common causes include Faulty Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S), Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) harness is open or shorted, Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) circuit poor electrical connection. Severity is High - diagnose this code as soon as possible. Driving is not recommended if the warning light is flashing, the engine runs poorly, or safety-related symptoms are present.

Code P2630 Description

A resistor is installed in the Universal Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) connector for part to part variance. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) determines the value of this resistor by taking multiple measurements of the resistor during each ignition ON event. The PCM uses this value in order to compensate for the variance in the pumping current signal. The test fails if the PCM determines the resistance value is too high.
