P2096Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Too Lean Bank 1

Post Catalyst Fuel Trim System Too Lean Bank 1

Definition

The post-catalyst fuel trim on Bank 1 is indicating a lean condition. The downstream O2 sensor is detecting that the exhaust leaving the catalytic converter has too much oxygen.

Common Causes

  • Exhaust leak between the catalytic converter and rear O2 sensor
  • Faulty downstream O2 sensor
  • Catalytic converter inefficiency
  • Persistent lean condition from upstream (P0171)
