SFI SYSTEM (w/o Secondary Air Injection System), Diagnostic DTC:P0130

DTC Code DTC Name
P0130 Oxygen Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

DESCRIPTION

To obtain a high purification rate for the CO, HC and NOx components of the exhaust gas, a three-way catalytic converter is used, but 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.

The heated oxygen sensor has the characteristic where by its output voltage changes suddenly in the vicinity of the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. This is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas and provide the ECM with feedback to control the air-fuel ratio.

When the air-fuel ratio becomes LEAN, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas increases. And the heated oxygen sensor informs the ECM of the LEAN condition (small electromotive force: <0.45 V).

When the air-fuel ratio is RICHER than the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas is reduced. And the heated oxygen sensor informs the ECM of the RICH condition (large electromotive force: >0.45 V). The ECM judges by the electromotive force from the heated oxygen sensor whether the air-fuel ratio is RICH or LEAN and controls the injection time accordingly. However, if the malfunction of the heated oxygen sensor causes an output of abnormal electromotive force, the ECM becomes unable to perform the accurate air-fuel ratio control.

The heated oxygen sensor is included a heater which heats the zirconia element. The heater is controlled by the ECM. When the intake air volume is low (the temperature of the exhaust gas is low), current flows to the heater in order to heat the sensor for the accurate oxygen concentration detection.

DTC No. DTC Detection Conditions Trouble Area
P0130
  • After engine is warmed up, heated oxygen sensor output does not indicate RICH (more than 0.45 V) even once when condition (a), (b), (c) and (d) continue for at least 15 seconds:


    1. Engine speed: 1000 rpm or more

    2. Vehicle speed: 40 to 100 km/h (25 to 62 mph)

    3. Throttle valve is not fully closed

    4. 80 seconds or more after starting engine


  • Open or short in heated oxygen sensor circuit

  • PCV hose

  • Air induction system

  • Fuel pressure

  • Heated oxygen sensor

  • Fuel injector

  • Gas leakage in exhaust system

  • ECM

Tech Tips

After confirming DTC P0130, use the intelligent tester to confirm the output voltage of the heated oxygen sensor from the "Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List". If voltage output of the heated oxygen sensor is less than 0.1 V, the heated oxygen sensor circuit may be open or short.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

A01BET4E38

(1) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

(2) Switch the intelligent tester from the normal mode to the check mode.

(3) Start the engine and let the engine idle for 60 seconds or more.

(4) Drive the vehicle at 40 km/h (25 mph) or more for 40 seconds or more.

(5) Let the engine idle for 10 seconds or more.

(6) Perform steps (4) and (5) 12 times.

Tech Tips

If a malfunction exists, the MIL will light up during step (6).

Note

If the conditions in this test are not strictly followed, detection of the malfunction will not be possible. If you do have an intelligent tester, turn the ignition switch OFF after performing steps from (3) to (6), then perform steps from (3) to (6) again.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

Tech Tips

Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when malfunctions are detected. 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.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ OUTPUT DTC


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.

    3. Read the DTCs.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      DTC P0130 is output A
      DTC P0130 and other DTCs are output B

      Tech Tips

      If any DTCs other than P0130 are output, perform troubleshooting for those DTCs first.

  2. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (OUTPUT VOLTAGE OF HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR)


    1. Warm up the engine to the normal operating temperature above 75°C (169°F).

    2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / O2S B1S1.

    5. Allow the engine to idle.

    6. Read the heated oxygen sensor output voltage when the engine is suddenly raced.

      Standard
      Heated oxygen sensor outputs a RICH signal (0.45 V or more) at least once

      Tech Tips

      Perform a quick racing to 4000 rpm 3 times by using the accelerator pedal.
