P2469 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit High Bank 2 Sensor 3
Same as P242D on bank 2 sensor 3. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
Is it safe to drive with P2469?
Usually safe to drive in the short term. Get it diagnosed when convenient, sooner if the car drives differently.
Common causes
- Most likelySignal shorted to supply
- Less likelyConnector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Less likelySupply wire pinched against B+ source
