AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR, HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (HO2S) INSPECTION [L3 Turbo]

Note

• Before performing the following inspection, make sure to follow the troubleshooting flowchart. (See FOREWORD [L3 Turbo].)

A/F Sensor Current Inspection

1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.

2. Using the WDS or equivalent, monitor the following:

- Vehicle speed (PID: VSS)

- Engine speed (PID: RPM)

- A/F sensor current (PID: O2S11)

3. Drive the vehicle and decelerate the engine speed by releasing the accelerator pedal fully when the engine speed is 3,000 rpm or more.

4. Verify that the A/F sensor current (PID: O2S11) is 0.25 mA or more while decelerating as shown in the figure.

• If not within the specification, inspect the A/F sensor for an open or short circuit. (See A/F Sensor Circuit Open/short Inspection (Sensor).) Then if there is no malfunction in the wiring harness, replace the A/F sensor.

A/F Sensor Heater Resistance Inspection

1. Disconnect the A/F sensor connector.

2. Measure the resistance between A/F sensor terminals 2B and 2D.

• If not within the specification, replace the A/F sensor. (See EXHAUST SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L3 Turbo].)

1-10 ohms

A/F Sensor Circuit Open/short Inspection (Sensor)

1. Disconnect the PCM connector.

2. Disconnect the A/F sensor connector.

3. Inspect the following wiring harnesses for an open or short circuit. (Continuity inspection)

HO2S Voltage Inspection

1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.

2. Using the WDS or equivalent, monitor the following:

- Vehicle speed (PID: VSS)

- Engine speed (PID: RPM)

- HO2S voltage (PID: O2S12)

3. Drive the vehicle and decelerate the engine speed by releasing the accelerator pedal fully when the engine speed is 3,000 rpm or more.

4. Verify that the HO2S outputs a voltage of 0.6 V or more, one time or more, then verify that the HO2S voltage (PID: O2S12) is 0.3 V or less while decelerating as shown in the figure.

• If not within the specification, inspect the HO2S for an open or short circuit. (See HO2S Circuit Open/short Inspection (Sensor).) Then if there is no malfunction in the wiring harness, replace the HO2S.
