What is this fault code?? (Video)

[MattyV6]

Hi guys,

 

My Zed has thrown this code up twice now, both times when just pottering around at around 1.5krpm or so.

 

It looks to me like its P0283.... which is a code for Cylinder 8 I suppose it must be P1283 which is Bank 2 Lean. Odd though as I thought codes were separated with 1 long flash, at least the ones I've had previously were.

 

Heres the video link;

 

Should I be worried about this?? The car has the following mods;

JWT Popcharger, 5/16 Plenum Spacer, Berk HFCs, Nismo Stainless Cat Back & a UpRev remap.

 

Thanks

 

Matt

reading 1283 for me

Definitely 1283, ignorant to the significance of the code though

Thanks guys I assumed it had to be considering the alternative was a Cylinder 8 code lol.

 

Im not too worried about the code as only had it a couple times and like I said its when you've been driving A roads for a while usually running at 1.5krpm ish in 6th for a lengthy time. Never have it when driven normally. I think it might be linked to a small leak on one of the Y-pipe flexi's

Thanks Neil

 

Is that Lambda Sensor in a hard to reach location?? Just wondering if it might be worth cleaning the electrical contacts on the plug first before going down the replacement route.

Just realised these codes have been coming up frequently since I've topped the car up with Sainsburys 97ron

 

Gonna wait till this tank is empty and fill her with some 99ron and see if things change

It will be the high flow cats causing it mate, usually happens with colder weather

Really? I had plenty of Sensor 2 codes for both banks over the winter, which when I researched turned out to be because of the cats. Didn't know it would effect Sensor 1 too?

1283 points to A/F Sensor 1 bank 2.

 

However there may be some underlying issues.
