DTC DESCRIPTION P0153 - O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT SLOW RESPONSE (BANK 2 SENSOR 1)

Description:  The PCM monitors the universal heated oxygen sensor bank 2, sensor 1 (HO2S21) response time by commanding a calibrated fuel control routine. This routine sets the air to fuel ratio to a calibrated limit to produce a predictable oxygen sensor signal amplitude. This DTC sets when the oxygen sensor signal does not reach the predicted amplitude within a predetermined response time.
Possible Causes: 
  • Exhaust leaks
  • Incorrect fueling
  • Intake air system leaks
  • Mass airflow (MAF) sensor (if equipped)
  • Contaminated universal HO2S21
  • Deteriorating universal HO2S21
Diagnostic Aids:
