    DTC Description OBD Status
    P2270 Rear Secondary HO2S (Bank 1, Sensor 2) Circuit Signal Stuck Lean  
    P2272 Front Secondary HO2S (Bank 2, Sensor 2) Circuit Signal Stuck Lean  

    Does the HDS indicate FAILED?

    YES 

    Replace secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) .

    NO 

    If the HDS indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.

    Check for poor connections or loose terminals at secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the PCM.

    If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the Fuel and Emissions Systems, or How to Troubleshoot the A/T System .

    If the HDS indicates EXECUTING, keep driving until a result comes on. If the HDS indicates OUT OF CONDITION, go to step 1-3 and recheck.
