DESCRIPTION
The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) generates current that corresponds to the actual air fuel ratio. This sensor current is used to provide the ECM with feedback so that it can control the air fuel ratio. The ECM determines the deviation from the stoichiometric air fuel ratio, and regulates the fuel injection time. If the air fuel ratio sensor malfunctions, the ECM is unable to control the air fuel ratio accurately.
The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) is a cup type sensor and uses a zirconia element for the sensor element. The zirconium element is made of platinum coated zirconium and includes an integrated heating element. The inner surface of the zirconia element is exposed to the outside air and the outer surface of it is exposed to the exhaust gas. The zirconia element generates a voltage according to the oxygen concentration of the exhaust gas and outside air. The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) becomes very efficient when heated. When the exhaust gas temperature is low, the sensor does not generate useful voltage signals without supplementary heating. Therefore, the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) includes a heater to heat the zirconia element.
In order to obtain a high purification rate of the carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbon (HC) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) components in the exhaust gas, a three-way catalytic converter is used. For the most efficient use of the three-way catalytic converter, the air fuel ratio must be precisely controlled so that it is always close to the stoichiometric air fuel ratio.
When any of these DTCs are stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. The ECM turns off the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) heater in fail-safe mode. Fail-safe mode continues until the power switch is turned off.
Although the DTC titles say oxygen sensor, these DTCs relate to the air fuel ratio sensor.
The ECM has a pulse width modulated control circuit to adjust the current through the heater. The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) heater circuit uses a relay on the +B side of the circuit.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) detects oxygen levels in the exhaust gas and transmits the information to the ECM. The inner surface of the sensor element is exposed to the outside air. The outer surface of the sensor element is exposed to the exhaust gas. The sensor element is made of platinum-coated zirconia and includes an integrated heating element.
The zirconia element generates a small voltage when there is a large difference in the oxygen concentrations between the exhaust gas and outside air. The platinum coating amplifies this voltage generation.
The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) is more efficient when heated. When the exhaust gas temperature is low, the sensor cannot generate useful current signals without supplementary heating. The ECM regulates the supplementary heating using a duty-cycle approach to adjust the average current in the sensor heater element. If the heater current is outside the normal range, the signal transmitted by the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) becomes inaccurate. As a result, the ECM is unable to regulate the air fuel ratio properly.
The ECM monitors the current applied to the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) heater to check the heater for malfunctions.
If the heater current is outside the normal range, the signal transmitted by the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) becomes inaccurate. When the current in the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) heater is outside the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor heater and stores a DTC.
The air fuel ratio sensor (bank 2 sensor 2) heater terminal voltage level is low while the heater is not operating. the ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the sensor heater and stores DTC.
TYPICAL ENABLING CONDITIONS
| Time after heater on | 5 seconds or more |
| Time after heater on | 5 seconds or more |
| Heater output duty cycle | Less than 75% |
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the power switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on [A].
Put the engine in Inspection Mode (2WD for measuring Exhaust Gas).
Start the engine and idle it for 5 minutes or more [B].
With the vehicle stationary, depress the accelerator pedal and maintain an engine speed of 2500 rpm for 1 minute [C].
During charge control, the engine speed is set at idle. Therefore, the engine speed does not increase when depressing the accelerator pedal. In this case, perform steps [C] and [D] after charge control has completed.
Idle the engine for 5 minutes or more [D].
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [E].
Read the pending DTCs.
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P003612, P003613, P005612, P005613, P102A9E or P105A9E.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE, perform steps [B] through [E] again.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
Vehicle Control History may be stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU if the engine is malfunctioning. Certain vehicle condition information is recorded when Vehicle Control History is stored. Reading the vehicle conditions recorded in both the freeze frame data and Vehicle Control History can be useful for troubleshooting.
(Select Powertrain in Health Check and then check the time stamp data.)
If any "Engine Malfunction" Vehicle Control History item has been stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU, make sure to clear it. However, as all Vehicle Control History items are cleared simultaneously, if any Vehicle Control History items other than "Engine Malfunction" are stored, make sure to perform any troubleshooting for them before clearing Vehicle Control History.
Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes the No. 1 cylinder*.
*: The No. 1 cylinder is the cylinder which is farthest from the transmission.
Bank 2 refers to the bank that does not include the No. 1 cylinder.
Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closest to the engine assembly.
Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farthest away from the engine assembly.
Refer to "Data List / Active Test" [A/F Sensor Heater Current Value B1S2, A/F Sensor Heater Current Value B2S2, A/F Sensor Heater Duty B1S2 and A/F Sensor Heater Duty B2S2].
When the values for the Data List item A/F Sensor Heater Current Value B1S2 and A/F Sensor Heater Current Value B2S2 are not 0 A, the heaters are on.
Change the fuel injection volume using the Control the Injection Volume for A/F Sensor function provided in the Active Test and monitor the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) output value (Click here). If the sensor output value does not change (almost no reaction) while performing the Active Test, the sensor may be malfunctioning.
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
