DTC P0140

A/F sensor no activity

DETECTION CONDITION

• The PCM monitors the input signal from A/F sensor while the engine running. The A/F sensor signal does not change to rich from lean or to lean from rich for 100 s after the engine started. The PCM determines that the A/F sensor is not activity.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• A/F sensor deterioration
• A/F sensor heater malfunction
• Leakage exhaust system
• Open circuit or short to ground in wiring harness between A/F sensor terminal A and PCM terminal 93
• Open circuit or short to ground in wiring harness between A/F sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 85
• Insufficient compression
• Engine malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED
• Has FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
• Verify related service repair information availability.
• Is any related repair information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information.
• If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
3
IDENTIFY TRIGGER DTC FOR FREEZE FRAME DATA
• Is DTC P0140 on FREEZE FRAME DATA?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to troubleshooting procedures for DTC on FREEZE FRAME DATA.
4
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS
• Warm up engine.
• Access O2S11 PID using the WDS or equivalent.
• Verify PID while racing engine in NEUTRAL.
• Is PID normal?

- Less than 1 mA when suddenly depressing accelerator pedal (rich condition)

- More than 1 mA just after releasing the accelerator pedal (lean condition)

Yes
Go to step 9.
No
Go to the next step.
5
INSPECT INSTALLATION OF A/F SENSOR
• Inspect if the A/F sensor is loosely installed.
• Is the sensor installed securely?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Install the sensor securely, then go to Step 11.
6
INSPECT GAS LEAKAGE FROM EXHAUST SYSTEM
• Visually inspect if there is any gas leakage between the exhaust manifold and A/F sensor.
• Is there gas leakage?
Yes
Repair or replace any malfunctioning exhaust part, then go to Step 11.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT A/F SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
• Inspect for continuity between the following terminals:
- A/F sensor terminal A (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 93 (wiring harness-side)
- A/F sensor terminal B (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 85 (wiring harness-side)
• Are there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the wiring harness for open circuit, then go to Step 11.
8
INSPECT A/F SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
• Inspect for continuity between the following terminals:
- A/F sensor terminal A (wiring harness-side) and body ground
- A/F sensor terminal B (wiring harness-side) and body ground
• Are there continuity?
Yes
Repair or replace the wiring harness for short to ground, then go to Step 11.
No
Go to the next step.
9
INSPECT SEALING OF ENGINE COOLANT PASSAGE
• Perform the ENGINE COOLANT LEAKAGE INSPECTION.
• Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to inspection results, then go to Step 11.
No
Go to the next step.
10
INSPECT ENGINE COMPRESSION
• Inspect the engine compression.
• Is it normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Perform engine overhaul for repairs, then go to the next step.
11
VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P0140 COMPLETED
• Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
• Turn the engine switch to the ON position (Engine off).
• Clear the DTC from memory using the WDS or equivalent.
• Start the engine.
• Perform the Repair Verification Drive Mode.
• Is the PENDING CODE for this DTC present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
12
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
• Perform the "After Repair Procedure".
• Are any DTC present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
No
Troubleshooting completed.
