120 miles after front end collision got p2097. It was a direct hit to the lower left and side of the car if looking at it. It took out the fog light, the plastic cover, broke the intercooler pipe and radiator damaging the coolant temperature sensor and plug. After lots of Googling did not find much information besides 101 different part/sensor possibilities that could cause the code. On forums found people with similar issues that took Honda engineers to figure out. So, we tried checking the intercooler pipe gaskets for proper installation. checked flanged ends to proper connection. looked for potential blockage in piping. couldn't look too well into turbo but stuck fingers in to check about three inches. checked engine air intake for blockage. Through Google searching, I found possibilities that the wire harness leading from CTS sensor to PCM/ECM could have a short that could throw the o2 sensor. tested voltage and found 5 volts at plug.
This accident was at a very low speed. My car hit a car with a tow hitch with a back rack. was a perfect isolated hit to my car. I keep wanting to believe this should be simple.
