Drives: Yaris XP9 1. So, Since a while we are seeing the check engine light pop up sometimes on our Yaris 1. I saw this for the first time about three months ago. Had some issues with the rear muffler, but that one was replaced for a original one by the dealer. New muffler sits under the car for about a month now, but i saw the P again last week. However, what is the cause of this and how can i solve it more permanently? Is there someone who has dealt with this error before? Car runs fine otherwise, no issues. Mileage see signature icon is also fine. View User's Garage. Originally Posted by ThinkPad.

The P Toyota code is a common diagnostic trouble code DTC that indicates a problem with the catalytic converter in a Toyota vehicle. This code specifically refers to Bank 1, which is the side of the engine where cylinder 1 is located. When this code is triggered, it means that the catalytic converter is not performing its job effectively, resulting in higher emissions. Dive into the depths of the P code, and you might find it shares a common language with Toyota. Speak the language of diagnostics. It is typically triggered when the oxygen sensor downstream of the catalytic converter detects a reduction in its ability to convert harmful gases into less harmful substances.

Are you getting the dreaded P error code from your Toyota Corolla? This post discusses the reasons for the code, and the easiest way to fix this common problem. When you buy through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission — at no cost to you. Use an ODB2 check engine light reader to read the error codes that are causing your check engine light CEL to illuminate. Error codes that start with P, refer to a problem with the catalytic converter cat. The way the vehicle determines that the catalytic converter is working okay is by measuring the oxygen content of the exhaust both upstream and downstream of the catalytic converter. If the cat is working, the 2 readings should be different. If the cat is not working and not doing anything to the exhaust, then the 2 sensors will read the same thing — indicating a problem. One thing to note: if the P error code shows up in addition to any other error codes, diagnose those errors first. It is common that if there is another problem with your vehicle, the P error code will be tripped as well.

This doesn't really indicate upstream or downstream O2 sensor. Please consider creating a new thread. Meaning cat is bad. Similar Threads. Ask a question Answers will be sent directly to your email. If the exhaust gasses are not scrubbed in the cat enough to change the oxygen and NOx compounds, than the readings of the downstream O2 sensor are too similar to the upstream sensor and the OBD says "your cat is not working" and throws the code.
