Today I noticed that my check engine light was on in my 2016 F-150 with the 3.5 Ecoboost. Truck runs fine and when I got home I scanned it and got a P0430 code.
"Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 2)."
From what I've read, this is usually a bad converter, not a bad O2 sensor.
Anyone have any experience with this?
I'm thinking my girlfriend had this converter code on her Jeep, and we got rid of it by pouring a catalytic converter cleaner in the gas tank.
I can't possibly get that lucky.
