About P2014

P2014 is a generic (obd-ii standard) powertrain diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the P-prefix family of codes, which covers engine, transmission, emissions, or fuel-system faults.

When P2014 is stored, the module has detected a sensor-related fault — the reported value from the named sensor is out of spec.

Scanning & clearing: A generic OBD-II scan tool will usually read and clear powertrain (P) codes. For live data, freeze-frame capture, and bi-directional tests you may need a more capable scan tool that supports the vehicle's ECM protocol.

Because P2014 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.

Code Information

The Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors the intake manifold runner position sensor or switch to confirm that the intake runner flaps (also called swirl flaps or tumble flaps on some applications) are in the commanded position. The runner flaps change the effective length or cross section of the intake tract to optimise torque at low engine speed and power at high engine speed. DTC P2014 is set when the ECM detects an implausible, missing, or out of range signal from the runner position sensor or switch, or when the circuit remains in a fixed state and does not change in response to actuator c...
