FIRST CEL ever...P 0249

Evenin, DTR.... my first CEL in over 4 years...

P2149 Bank 2 (Cylinders 4-6) Shorted High Or Low

Truck is running good, I might have noticed my battery volts a little high after the CEL came on, but that could be my imagination...


I'm gonna go out and look at grounds, connections, ect...any other advice?

TIA!

I may take it off, but I've been using it for 2 years with no problems.

On second thought, it's coming off later.

Just heard several guys with the same or similar code ( 1/2/3 injector , 4/5/6 injectors, ect ) . Just make sure there's no corrosion and that they are seated well. Next step would be to pull the valve cover and look for a chaffed wire. IIRC, the wires go thru the valve cover gasket, and there have been several known to rub thru.

Sounds like a winner.

With the way my week has been going, I would not be suprised if the truck threw a pistion while idleing, the OL left me, and I was struck by lightning after being in a plane wreck.

Thanks for the advice.
