P341D

Deactivation/exhaust valve control, bank 2 - circuit performance problem

P341D is described as “Deactivation/exhaust valve control, bank 2 - circuit performance problem” in the Generic OBD2 reference.

Some scan tools (for example GM and Ford dealer tools) display this code with a failure-type suffix, such as P341D-00 or P341D:00; the base code P341D is the same.

What do Bank and Sensor mean?

Bank 1 is the side containing cylinder 1. Bank 2 is the other side on V or flat engines; inline engines have only Bank 1. Cylinder numbering depends on the engine, so check the manufacturer’s layout.

For exhaust oxygen sensors, Sensor 1 is upstream, closest to the engine; Sensor 2 is downstream, after the catalyst. Confirm the exact sensor layout in the vehicle’s service information.

Other-bank reference: P341C. A paired definition does not prove that your engine has both banks.
