Possible Causes:  Electrical:
  • Short to VPWR in the harness or HO2S
  • Water in the harness connector
  • Open/shorted HO2S circuit
  • Corrosion or incorrect harness connections
  • Damaged HO2S
  • Damaged powertrain control module (PCM)

Fuel System:
  • Excessive fuel pressure
  • Leaking/contaminated fuel injectors
  • Leaking fuel pressure regulator
  • Low fuel pressure or running out of fuel
  • Vapor recovery system

Intake Air System:
  • Air leaks after the mass air flow (MAF) sensor
  • Vacuum leaks
  • Positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system
  • Incorrectly seated engine oil dipstick

EGR System:
  • Leaking gasket
  • Stuck EGR valve
  • Leaking diaphragm or EGR vacuum regulator
