ECU Internal Knock Sensor Processor 2 Performance

What does this code mean?

Severity : Medium

P06B7 indicates a performance fault in the internal control module processor that handles the knock sensor 2 signal. The module checks this processing circuit itself and detects an inconsistent result. It may then limit ignition timing as a precaution. Depending on the manufacturer, a sensor or wiring fault can also set this code.

Symptoms

  • Check engine light on.
  • Reduced power or sluggish response.
  • Higher fuel consumption.
  • Other knock sensor codes may be stored.

Possible causes

  • Internal engine control module fault.
  • Knock sensor 2 or its wiring disturbing signal processing.
  • Unstable module supply voltage or ground.
  • Control module software needing an update.
  • Moisture in the module or its connector.

Diagnosis and repair

  • Check battery, charging and module grounds.
  • Inspect knock sensor 2, its connector and wiring.
  • Deal with any other knock related codes first.
  • Check for manufacturer software updates.
  • Replace or repair the control module if the fault persists, then clear the code.
