P2424 Meaning
The Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors the phase difference between the Heated Oxygen Sensor 2 signal and the Heated Oxygen Sensor 3 signal.
The phase difference between the Heated Oxygen Sensor 2 signal and the Heated Oxygen Sensor 3 signal becomes small as the HC Adsorption Catalyst (underfloor) deteriorates.
When the phase difference between the Heated Oxygen Sensor 2 signal and the Heated Oxygen Sensor 3 signal approaches a specified threshold value, the HC Adsorption Catalyst (underfloor) malfunction is diagnosed.
