HO2S Heater Resistance Bank 1 Sensor 2
on 2003 Audi A6 2.7L Turbo V6 · AWD
What this code means
The ECU detected that the heater resistance in the downstream oxygen sensor on Bank 1 is outside the expected range. The downstream sensor monitors catalytic converter efficiency and requires proper heater function.
Symptoms
- Check Engine Light
- Failed emissions test
- Poor catalyst monitoring
- Slightly reduced fuel economy
Common causes
- Faulty downstream O2 sensor heater
- High resistance in heater wiring
- Corroded connector at sensor
- Heater relay failure
Diagnostic steps
- Test downstream O2 sensor heater resistance
- Inspect connector for corrosion
- Check heater circuit wiring
- Test heater relay operation
Repair notes
Replace the downstream O2 sensor on Bank 1.
