“Check” warning light

[Kinde]

My 2001 996 Carrera 2 3.6L’s “check“ warning light has come one.

Fault codes are P013600, P014000, does anyone know what the codes mean?

All relate to O2 Sensor ..not Teckie but just Googled codes .
Best ask a Porsche Specialist to confirm

I read the same but O2 sensors were replaced about a year go. Wondering if it’s something else.

I don't have specific 996 docs but the following is from a Porsche doc for a cayenne - but the meaning of these codes is usually transferable I have found

P013600
P013600 Bank 1 sensor 2 electr. fault in circuit

Fault finding notes
Open circuit
Short circuit to B+
Short circuit to ground
Loose contact or corrosion on connectors or lines
Oxygen sensor downstream of cat. conv., bank 1 sensor 2 faulty
Check exhaust system for leaks if necessary
Check injectors (for leaks)

P014000
P014000 Bank 1 sensor 2 no activity
Fault finding notes
Open circuit
Short circuit to B+
Short circuit to ground
Loose contact or corrosion on connectors or lines
Oxygen sensor behind cat. conv., bank 1 sensor 2 faulty

So both codes seem to point to an electrical problem bank1 sensor2 - internet guesswork at it's best - but I will go with corroded / loose connector or some wiring damage ( possibly rodents - read about a few incidents of that lately) to that sensor

From memory bank 1 on a 996 is UK drivers side - sensor 2 is the one after the cat - but check my homework.

Just to add that I think you’ll find that bank 1 on the 996 is on the UK passenger’s side … because the engine’s the wrong way round!

Yup. Think you are correct. Don’t have a picture to hand. According to this is “to the left when looking at the belt”

Popping P0430 code on my 2002 C4S. No mods of any type and all serviceing up to date. BUT, car is out of emmsions waranty. Barely Of course... :) Returns after a few miles of driving with no other codes but the 0430. All research leads me to believe it is a Bad Cat plus when the engineis hot I ca...
