2B07 — NOx Sensor: Open or Short Circuit

Description

What the Code Means

2B07 points to an electrical fault in the NOx sensor circuit. The code is similar to 2AF4 but may refer to a different engine bank.

Normally the NOx sensor sends the DME data on nitrogen oxide concentration in the exhaust. An electrical failure in the circuit — an open, a short, or a loss of communication — leaves the control unit without that data.

Symptoms

Symptoms

  • Check Engine light is on;
  • the NOx sensor doesn't respond (no data reaching the DME).

Causes and fixes

Diagnosis and Repair

Step 1. Check the Wiring

Inspect the NOx sensor circuit wiring for opens, shorts, and damaged insulation.

Step 2. Replace the Sensor

If the wiring checks out, replace the NOx sensor.

Possible secondary damage

Secondary Issues

Losing the sensor signal can force the DME into a default rich mixture. Running permanently rich while the fault is ignored isn't intended as a long-term operating mode.
