The P207B error code pertains to the Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) Valve Position Sensor/Switch Circuit Range/Performance for Bank 2. This code indicates that the Engine Control Module (ECM) is detecting an issue with the performance of the IMT valve in relation to its expected operation. The IMT valve helps optimize engine performance by adjusting the intake manifold's air flow characteristics, which is essential for efficient combustion and power delivery.

What are the symptoms of the P207B code?

Common symptoms associated with the P207B fault code may include:

• Decreased engine performance or power
• Rough idling
• Increased fuel consumption
• Activation of the check engine light
• Poor acceleration or hesitation during driving

What causes the P207B code?

Possible causes for the P207B fault code include:

• A malfunctioning or faulty IMT valve
• Issues with the wiring or connectors in the IMT valve circuit
• A damaged intake manifold or associated components
• Faulty ECM or software issues
• Vacuum leaks affecting the intake manifold pressure

How to fix P207B?

To resolve the P207B code, consider the following steps:

• Inspect the IMT valve and its connections for any visible damage or wear
• Check for any vacuum leaks in the intake system
• Test the IMT valve operation using a multimeter to ensure it is functioning correctly
• Replace any faulty wiring or connectors associated with the IMT sensor
• Clear the fault codes and perform a test drive to verify that the issue has been resolved.
