  • AFS Voltage B1S1

  • Exhaust Temperature B1S2

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The air fuel ratio sensor outputs a voltage in proportion to the air-fuel ratio. If impedance (alternating current resistance) or voltage output of the sensor deviates greatly from the standard range, the ECM interprets this as an open or short malfunction of the air fuel ratio sensor circuit.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration Click here and initialization Click here.

Tech Tips

Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition 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, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR FUEL RATIO SENSOR - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the air fuel ratio sensor connector.

    2. Disconnect the ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      D120-3 (A1A+) - D134-83 (A1A+) Always Below 1 Ω
      D120-4 (A1A-) - D134-115 (A1A-) Always Below 1 Ω
      D120-3 (A1A+) or D134-83 (A1A+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      D120-4 (A1A-) or D134-115 (A1A-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
    4. Reconnect the air fuel ratio sensor connector.

    5. Reconnect the ECM connector.

  3. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

    4. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    5. Drive the vehicle at 50 km/h (30 mph) or more for a total of 300 seconds or more.

      Tech Tips

      Make sure that the exhaust gas temperature (Exhaust Temperature B1S1) is 200°C (392°F) or higher.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.

    7. Read the DTCs.

  6. CONFIRM WHETHER MALFUNCTION HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY REPAIRED


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

    4. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    5. Drive the vehicle at 50 km/h (30 mph) or more for a total of 300 seconds or more.

      Tech Tips

      Make sure that the exhaust gas temperature (Exhaust Temperature B1S2) is 200°C (392°F) or higher.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.

    7. Confirm that the DTC is not output again.
