C1672 Lancia Flavia OBD Code

OBD/2 C1672 error code description and symptoms.

The issue covered by the bulletin involves a power steering noise/whine or fluid leak from the power steering pump, gear or high pressure side power steering hose during extreme low outdoor temperature operation.

Some systems require that the actuator has an adequate supply of brake fluid. Low brake fluid levels can mimic the symptoms of code C1672, so consult the manual to locate the brake fluid reservoir. Bear in mind that a low fluid level can set code C1672 on some applications, so make sure that on fluid operated systems the fluid level is up to the mark before starting an electrical diagnosis.

C1672 Lancia Flavia Error Code Repair Process :

If your vehicle failed a C1672 test and the C1672 Check Engine Light is NOT on, chances are you have a problem with the OBDII system, a burned out MIL lamp, or a faulty catalytic converter. The converter is essentially an afterburner that cleans up the exhaust after it exits the engine. The OBDII system uses o2 sensor circuit malfunction (bank 1 sensor 1) a ownstream oxygen sensor to monitor the efficiency of the converter, and it should detect a drop in converter efficiency if the converter has been contaminated or is failing (ignition misfiring, leaky exhaust valves, and oil burning can all damage the converter). What you want to look o2 sensor circuit malfunction (bank 1 sensor 1): Any conditions that might cause ignition misfire, an overly rich or lean fuel condition, or loss of compression. Use your OBD Express DIY to look at the oxygen sensor outputs, coolant temperature, airflow, calculated engine load, and inlet air temperature.

Common Causes of Lancia Flavia C1672 OBD2 Code

A common cause of code C1672 is the failure of O2 Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1), but there are several other possible causes as well, such as ;

Exhaust gas leaks
Faulty TCM or TCM programming
Faulty oil control valve (OCV)
Oil Control Valve (OCV) circuit is open or shorted

C1672 is a kind of Chassis Trouble Code

Diagnosing chassis noises can be one of the most frustrating problems technicians face. Fortunately, manufacturers have engineered noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) diagnostic techniques and equipment to find the source of the noise.
