P2628

Moderate

O2 Sensor Pumping Current Trim Circuit High Bank 1 Sensor 1

What Does P2628 Mean?

The oxygen sensor pumping current trim circuit voltage for Bank 1 Sensor 1 is reading higher than expected range. This indicates excessive voltage or open circuit in the wide-band sensor's pumping cell control circuit.

Common Causes

40%

Faulty oxygen sensor with open pumping cell circuit

O2 Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1
Oxygen Sensor

30%

Open circuit or high resistance in O2 sensor wiring

O2 Sensor Wiring Harness
Connector

20%

Corroded or loose sensor connector terminals causing high resistance

O2 Sensor Connector
Connector Terminals

7%

PCM internal circuit fault causing excessive voltage output

Engine Control Module
PCM

3%

Damaged sensor due to contamination or overheating

Oxygen Sensor

Diagnostic Steps

1

Step 1: Inspect O2 sensor connector for corrosion, bent pins, or moisture; clean and apply dielectric grease if needed

2

Step 2: Test continuity of pumping current circuit wiring from sensor connector to PCM

3

Step 3: Measure pumping cell resistance at sensor (should be 2-4 ohms typically; open = infinite resistance)

4

Step 4: Check for exhaust leaks near sensor that could affect readings or damage sensor

5

Step 5: Replace sensor if resistance is open or out of spec; test PCM output voltage if wiring and sensor test good

Estimated Repair Cost

$200 - $650
