B26A2 Peugeot Ion OBD Code

OBD/2 B26A2 error code description and symptoms.

The Camshaft Position sensor will signal the Engine Control Module when the #1 cylinder is ready for the spark plug to fire (top-dead-center on compression stroke). The ECM uses the information from this sensor to help calculate fuel delivery and spark timing.

Some systems require that the actuator has an adequate supply of brake fluid. Low brake fluid levels can mimic the symptoms of code B26A2, so consult the manual to locate the brake fluid reservoir. Bear in mind that a low fluid level can set code B26A2 on some applications, so make sure that on fluid operated systems the fluid level is up to the mark before starting an electrical diagnosis.

B26A2 Peugeot Ion Error Code Repair Process :

OBD B26A2 code and tailpipe testing are two different approaches to identify vehicles in need of repair. The OBD system looks for broken or malfunctioning emissions control components and o2 sensor circuit low voltage (bank 1 sensor 2), while tailpipe tests sample a vehicle's exhaust to see if it is above or below certain prescribed limits. Given the robust nature of today's emissions control components, it is entirely possible for an individual component to B26A2 malfunction without leading to an immediate increase in emissions at the tailpipe. In such cases, other components (like the catalyst) can temporarily compensate for the part that is broken however, these other components can only do double duty for so long before they, too, begin to malfunction. In addition, OBD also monitors for B26A2 and other malfunctions in the fuel system problems that traditional tailpipe tests were not designed to identify. Most state and local areas also include a gas cap pressure test as part of an emission inspection.

Common Causes of Peugeot Ion B26A2 OBD2 Code

A common cause of code B26A2 is the failure of O2 Sensor Circuit Low Voltage (Bank 1 Sensor 2), but there are several other possible causes as well, such as ;

Clogged or faulty fuel injector (s)
Faulty select solenoid
Failures of clutch motion/travel sensors.
Open circuits caused by damage to wiring.
