P0155 is reported as bank 2 sensor 1 heater fault. The next step depends on the full scan and the exact vehicle, not the code alone.
If braking, steering, power, temperature, smoke, or fuel smell is abnormal, stop safely; otherwise save the full scan and arrange diagnosis.
This Ford document supports only its stated code and vehicle context. The code alone cannot identify a failed part, prove that another make uses the same definition, or clear a car for driving. Compare your full scan with the current exact-vehicle service information.

What this code means
P0155: Bank 2 sensor 1 heater fault. This is a source-scoped technical description. It does not prove that any named component has failed.
Namespace obd_reference
Make scope No exact vehicle application established
Definition status source supported definition vehicle applicability unverified
Why this exact code matters
This heater report names Bank 2 Sensor 1. Bank 2 is engine-specific and cannot be mapped to left or right without the exact engine manual; do not order the Bank 1 sensor by mistake.
Compare P0135: Bank 1 heater. A related code is a different observation, not a second diagnosis.
Evidence to save for this code
- Exact bank and sensor position
- Heater versus signal code
Keep the complete module scan and any accompanying warning; a single emissions code cannot show every relevant fault.
Ask for a measured diagnosis
- Are supply, ground, connector, wiring, exhaust leakage or sensor response at fault?
- Is this a wideband A/F sensor requiring a different test method?
The Oxygen/A/F sensor circuit and heater diagnosis guide has the shared system checks and after-repair questions. Those broad checks apply to a system, while the meaning above is specific to P0155.
Vehicle and scanner limits
We have not verified this code for every make, model, year or engine. A generic emissions scanner may not read the body, chassis, transmission or EV module that holds related faults. Compare the full scan with the owner manual and manufacturer service information.
