Ford Explorer 2010 Model Errors P2196, P 2197 & P2198

[Mahmood Ali Niaz]

I have limited income and maintaining Ford Explorer 2010. Recently I got repair of Transmission. After that repair mechanic handed over me the vehicle with engine check indications. After checking on computer I came to know the following errors.

P2196
P2197
P2198

Please suggest me how economically I can get rid of them.

Thanks & Regards

An Internet search brought up;

P2196 Ford - Lack of HO2S-11 Switch Sensor Indicates Rich Bank 1 Sensor 1

Possible causes
- Faulty Front Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1
- Front Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 harness is open or shorted
- Front Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 circuit poor electrical connection
- Inappropriate fuel pressure
- Faulty fuel injectors
- Intake air leaks may be faulty
- Vacuums leaks

P2198 - O2 Sensor Signal Biased/Stuck Rich Bank 2 Sensor 1

I think this calls for a dealer visit unless someone can explain what to do.

Welcome to the Forum.:wavey:
I have moved your post to this sub forum from the 2011 - 2017 Ford Explorer 'Discussion' threads. Although the error codes may be the same, the 5th generation Explorer is a different vehicle. I think this may require a visit to the dealer as I mention in my "quoted" post above. Good luck.
