Generic · emissions
Data confidence65%
The control module detected a fault associated with the Catalyst Heater Supply Voltage Bank 1 circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode.
Symptoms
MIL illuminated
Possible smell of unburnt fuel or reduced performance in severe cases
Possible causes
Aged or damaged catalytic converter
Downstream oxygen sensor fault giving a wrong efficiency reading
Exhaust leak
Misfire or mixture fault overloading the catalyst
Recommended checks
Compare upstream and downstream oxygen sensor signals
Check for exhaust leaks
Check for stored misfire or mixture codes first
Verify catalyst temperature plausibility where available
Powertrain: engine, transmission and driveline systems.
