P2023: Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor/Switch Circuit Intermittent (Bank 2)

Standardized SAE J2012 code · P20xx — Fuel & air metering and auxiliary emission controls

What does P2023 mean?

The IMRC position sensor signal on bank 2 jumps or drops out intermittently — usually a loose pin, partially-broken conductor, or moisture in the connector.

The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.

Common causes

  • High Loose terminal in connector
  • Medium Water ingress into connector
  • Low Connector with intermittent contact under vibration

Likelihood is a general estimate across vehicles; your make and model may differ.
