P267E"B" Rocker Arm Actuator Position Sensor Circuit Intermittent/Erratic (Bank 2)

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
Here the bank 2 angle signal of lift actuator B is mostly plausible, yet it drops out for moments or jumps by amounts the motor-driven shaft could not cover in the time between two readings. The engine controller counts such events and sets P267E once they exceed its tolerance. Loose terminals, a wire cracked inside its insulation near the cylinder head, and interference from ignition or actuator wiring are the usual suspects; the fault often depends on heat or vibration. No manufacturer documents P267E publicly. CARB asks lift system inputs to be checked for signal quality, not only for fixed limits. While the reading jumps, lift control on bank 2 can hunt or be parked. Recording the signal while moving the harness helps locate the fault.
What you may notice
  • Check engine light that may come and go
  • Brief hesitation or surging
  • Uneven running when lift control on bank 2 hunts
Likely causes
  • LikelyLoose or fretted terminal in the sensor connector
  • PossibleWire broken inside insulation, opening under heat or vibration
  • RareInterference from nearby ignition or actuator wiring
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
