Standardized SAE J2012 code · P22xx — Fuel & air metering and auxiliary emission controls

What does P22AF mean?

O2 sensor reference voltage on bank 1 sensor 2 is in range but plausibility check fails — drift or instability.

Symptoms

  • Check engine light on
  • Increased fuel consumption
  • Possible rough idle or hesitation
  • Failed emissions test
