P0158 on Toyota

O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank 2, Sensor 2)

Minor2 Toyota models affected$220-$600 typical repairSystem: Emissions

P0158 on Toyota vehicles indicates o2 sensor circuit high voltage (bank 2, sensor 2). Au7o has documented this code across 2 Toyota models — most commonly on Camry, Highlander. The PCM detects a persistently high voltage from the Bank 2, Sensor 2 downstream O2 sensor, indicating a short to voltage, contamination, or a rich condition at the post-catalyst sensor. Typical repair costs on Toyota range from $220 to $600, depending on the specific model and root cause.

Common Causes of P0158

  • •Faulty Bank 2 downstream O2 sensor
  • •Short to voltage in signal wire
  • •Coolant/contaminant on sensor
  • •Rich exhaust condition
  • •Wiring/connector fault

P0158 on Toyota by Model

Toyota Camry(1 issue)

  • 2007-2010 2GR-FE P0138/P0158/P0606 Diagnostic Gates - T-SB-0001-102007-2010

    Toyota T-SB-0001-10 Rev1 covers specified 2007-2009 Camry VDS BK46K and 2010 VDS BK3EK applications. P0138/P0158 may result from incorrect air-fuel-sensor response, and P0606 may also be present due to incorrect downstream O2-sensor operation. Toyota distinguishes these paths using the complete DTC set, freeze-frame air-fuel/O2 voltage and downstream O2 impedance, followed by circuit inspection. It does not describe every P0606 as a sensor fault or support the original 2AZ-FE, 2006-2012, VSC/TRAC or battery claims.

Toyota Highlander(1 issue)

  • Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor Signal Stuck Lean — P2195 / P2197 with P0138 / P0158 (2GR-FE)2008-2013

    Second-generation Highlanders with the 2GR-FE V6 commonly set a check engine light for an upstream air/fuel ratio sensor whose signal sticks on the lean side of its range. The characteristic Toyota pattern is a downstream oxygen sensor circuit-high code (P0138 bank 1 or P0158 bank 2) appearing together with, or instead of, the A/F sensor code (P2195 bank 1, P2197 bank 2) — the ECM flags the rear sensor because the front sensor's slow response drives the fuel trim, so shops that replace the downstream O2 sensor first fix nothing. Toyota published a service bulletin covering 2008-2010 Highlander for exactly this combination, attributing it to incorrect air/fuel ratio sensor response. Symptoms are mild — a light, slightly worse fuel economy, occasional rough idle — but the car will fail emissions testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does P0158 mean on Toyota?▼

P0158 stands for "O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank 2, Sensor 2)." The PCM detects a persistently high voltage from the Bank 2, Sensor 2 downstream O2 sensor, indicating a short to voltage, contamination, or a rich condition at the post-catalyst sensor. On Toyota specifically, this code is documented across 2 models.

What causes P0158 on Toyota vehicles?▼

Common causes on Toyota: Faulty Bank 2 downstream O2 sensor, Short to voltage in signal wire, Coolant/contaminant on sensor, Rich exhaust condition, Wiring/connector fault. Specific causes vary by model and year — see the per-model sections below.

How much does it cost to fix P0158 on a Toyota?▼

Repair costs on Toyota range from $220 to $600, depending on the specific model and root cause.

Which Toyota models have P0158 documented?▼

Au7o has documented P0158 on 2 Toyota models: Camry, Highlander.
