HO2S Transition Time Ratio Bank 1 Sensor 1
on 2017 GMC Acadia 2.5L I4 · AWD
What this code means
The PCM detected that the upstream O2 sensor on Bank 1 has an abnormal rich-to-lean vs lean-to-rich transition time ratio. The time the sensor takes to switch in one direction is significantly different from the other, indicating sensor degradation.
Symptoms
- Check Engine Light
- Poor fuel economy
- Rough running
- Failed emissions test
- Subtle performance loss
Common causes
- Degraded or aging O2 sensor
- Exhaust leak near sensor
- Fuel system imbalance
- Contaminated O2 sensor (coolant or oil)
Diagnostic steps
- Monitor O2 sensor waveform for asymmetric transitions
- Check for exhaust leaks
- Test fuel pressure and trim values
- Inspect sensor for contamination
Repair notes
Replace upstream O2 sensor Bank 1. Often appears alongside P1133.
