P2011Intake Manifold Runner Control Circuit/Open (Bank 2)
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- How the car detects it
- P2011 covers the electrical drive of the bank 2 flaps, so it appears only on engines with a separate actuator or solenoid per bank. Ford's petrol summaries list P2011 as the IMRC control circuit of bank 2 on vacuum-operated V engines; the PCM output driver itself reports the fault, the check runs continuously after coolant passes 40 °F and needs 5 s with at least 11 V battery voltage. Audi's 3.0 TFSI (A6, A7, A8, Q7, S4, S5, SQ5, 2012–2016) lists P2011 next to the stuck-flap codes in a bulletin where the vacuum-driven coolant pump drew too much vacuum and upset the flap control; the fix is an updated hose with a restrictor, so a P2011 there is not always a broken wire. GM's diesels are inline engines and use only P2008. Low and high faults of the same circuit are P2012 and P2013.
- What you may notice
- Malfunction indicator lamp on
- Bank 2 flaps do not switch, slight loss of torque or power
- Likely causes
- LikelyOpen wire or loose connector at the bank 2 solenoid
- PossibleOpen coil in the bank 2 control solenoid
- RareVacuum-driven coolant pump drawing too much vacuum (Audi 3.0 TFSI)
- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
