P2B13Cylinder 2 Injection Pulse Offset Exceeded Learning Limit
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
- How the car detects it
- P2B13 concerns injector 2 on Ford's Power Stroke diesels: its zero-fuel learn value has run past the permitted band. Ford's 2023 OBD summary shows when the learn runs: continuously, typically within about 30 s, with coolant of at least 50 °C, intake air between 0 and 75 °C, fuel of at least 10 °C, at least 10 V supply, almost no pedal (up to 2 %) and rail pressure within 50 bar of its target. A real deviation is not the only trigger, though. Special service message 48877 for 2017–2019 F-Super Duty 6.7 L trucks explains that abnormal steering wheel oscillation can put noise on the crank or cam sensor frequency and set these codes; if they stay away after clearing, no injector work is to be done. Balance code P0266 often appears alongside.
- What you may notice
- Check engine light
- Often no running fault; with a worn injector, knocking or rough idle
- Likely causes
- PossibleSteering wheel oscillation disturbing the crank or cam signal (Ford SSM 48877)
- PossibleInjector 2 with genuinely shifted opening time due to wear or deposits
- PossibleImplausible learned values in the PCM
- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
