What it means
P0057 means HO2S Heater Control Circuit Low Bank 2 Sensor 2.
Where it lives
For P0057, the circuit described runs through the sensor. The description of P0057 puts it on bank 2.
Check these first
- A short to ground in the Bank 2 Sensor 2 heater control wire
- A heater element in the Bank 2 Sensor 2 oxygen sensor drawing low current
- Corrosion or a poor pin fit at the Bank 2 Sensor 2 oxygen sensor connector
- Charging voltage that is low feeding the heater control circuit
- A shorted heater control driver inside the ECM
What to do next
- Scan the heater control circuit voltage at the Bank 2 Sensor 2 connector
- Check the control wire for a short to ground
- Measure heater resistance and compare it to the sensor spec
- Inspect the connector pins for corrosion or looseness
- Replace the Bank 2 Sensor 2 oxygen sensor if the heater is out of spec
- Clear the code and retest
