P2135 TPS Switch “A/B” Voltage Correlation If your Toyota Mirai has P2135 it is considered “drive by wire”.  Which means that it uses sensors and actuators to control … Read more

Toyota Mirai P2197: 02 Sensor B2S1 – Signal Stuck Lean

P2197 is a general DTC code that indicates that the signal coming from your Toyota Mirai’s first O2 sensor on the bank two side of the engine is stuck giving off a lean signal.  The voltage reading from a normal oxygen sensor should look something like a heartbeat, whereas with P2197 the voltage looks like a … Read more

Toyota Mirai P2195 Causes + Diagnosis

P2195 is a general OBD2 code that indicates that the signal coming from your Toyota Mirai’s 1’st O2 sensor on Bank 1 Sensor 1 is stuck lean. DTC P2195 is a general code, which means that it has the same meaning for any make, model, or year.  It is most typically caused by a bad … Read more

Toyota Mirai P2272:  B2S2 O2 Sensor – Stuck Lean

P2272 in the Toyota Mirai is a general diagnostic trouble code.  It means that the “bank 2” downstream oxygen sensor (behind the catalytic converter) is continuously sending voltage that indicates a lean air/fuel mixture.   This does not necessarily mean that the vehicle is running lean (although it can, but usually doesn’t).  P2272 is typically … Read more

Toyota Mirai P2270: Symptoms, Causes, + Diagnosis

P2270 is a general DTC trouble code, which means it has the same meaning for the Toyota Mirai as it would any other vehicle.  It means that the oxygen sensor located on bank 1 behind the catalytic converter is continuously sending voltage that indicates a lean air/fuel mixture.   This does not necessarily mean that … Read more

Toyota Mirai P0453: Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor/Switch Too High

Your Toyota Mirai utilizes an evaporative emissions control (EVAP) system to migrate fuel vapors from the gas tank and fuel filler neck, and sends them to the engine to be burned off.  When the pressure inside of the fuel tank is too high, P0453, is thrown and the check engine light comes on. If the only … Read more

Toyota Mirai P0452:  FUEL Tank Pressure Low Diagnosis

P0452 is a generic OBD II code that can occur in the Toyota Mirai.  It means that your Mirai’s EVAP system has detected low fuel tank pressure. The evaporative emissions control system (EVAP) sends fuel vapors from the fuel tank to the intake manifold to be burned off.  When the pressure in the system is … Read more

P2189 Toyota Mirai:  Lean Condition at Idle (Bank 2)

P2189 is a DTC code that can occur in your Toyota Mirai.  It indicates the air fuel mixture is too lean at idle, specifically in bank 2 (we’ll cover how to find bank 2 later).  Its is different from the much more common P0174, which indicates that bank 2 is lean at any engine speed. … Read more
