P2EA2: Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit High Bank 1 Sensor 6
Standardized SAE J2012 code · P2Exx codes
What does P2EA2 mean?
The exhaust gas temperature sensor on bank 1 sensor 6 reports a circuit high fault. EGT measurement at this position is unreliable.
The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.
Common causes
- High Temperature sensor failed
- Medium Wiring or connector fault
- Low Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
Likelihood is a general estimate across vehicles; your make and model may differ.
