How to Fix B1895
Diagnostic Steps:
The catalytic converter has oxygen sensors before and after it. When warm and in closed-loop mode, the upstream O2 sensor reading should fluctuate, while downstream should remain steady.
Repair Solution:
Power steering pressure switch monitors system operation. If pressure changes are not detected after calibrated speed transitions, this DTC sets. Verify PSP switch operation and check for circuit opens or shorts.
Technical Notes:
B1895 DTCs can be triggered by upstream issues. For example, a dirty MAF sensor may cause incorrect fuel-trim adjustments, leading oxygen sensors to report mixture problems. Address root causes first.
