MONITOR DESCRIPTION

Active Air-fuel Ratio Control
The ECM usually performs air-fuel ratio feedback control so that the air fuel ratio sensor output indicates a near stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. This vehicle includes active air-fuel ratio control in addition to regular air-fuel ratio control. The ECM performs active air-fuel ratio control to detect any deterioration in the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) and heated oxygen sensor malfunctions (refer to the diagram below).

Active air-fuel ratio control is performed for approximately 15 to 20 seconds while driving with a warm engine. During active air-fuel ratio control, the air-fuel ratio is forcibly regulated to become lean or rich by the ECM. If the ECM detects a malfunction, a DTC is stored.

Abnormal Voltage Output of Heated Oxygen Sensor (DTC P0136)
While the ECM is performing active air-fuel ratio control, the air-fuel ratio is forcibly regulated to become rich or lean. If the sensor is not functioning properly, the voltage output variation is small. For example, when the heated oxygen sensor voltage does not decrease to below 0.21 V and does not increase to higher than 0.69 V during active air-fuel ratio control, the ECM determines that the sensor voltage output is abnormal and stores DTC P0136.

Open or Short in Heated Oxygen Sensor Circuit (DTC P0137 or P0138)
During active air-fuel ratio control, the ECM calculates the Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC)* of the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) by forcibly regulating the air-fuel ratio to become rich or lean. If the heated oxygen sensor has an open or short, or the voltage output of the sensor decreases significantly, the Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC) is indicated as having an extraordinarily high value. Even if the ECM attempts to continue regulating the air-fuel ratio to become rich or lean, the heated oxygen sensor output does not change.

While performing active air-fuel ratio control, when the target air-fuel ratio is rich and the HO2 sensor voltage output is 0.21 V or less (lean), the ECM interprets this as an abnormally low sensor output voltage and stores DTC P0137. When the target air-fuel ratio is lean and the voltage output is 0.69 V or more (rich) during active air-fuel ratio control, the ECM determines that the sensor voltage output is abnormally high and stores DTC P0138.

*: The Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) has the capability to store oxygen. The Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC) and the emissions purification capacity of the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) are mutually related. The ECM determines whether the catalyst has deteriorated based on the calculated Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC) value Click here.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

Tech Tips

This confirmation driving pattern is used in the "Perform Confirmation Driving Pattern" procedure of the following diagnostic troubleshooting procedure.

Performing this confirmation pattern will activate the heated oxygen sensor monitor. (The catalyst monitor is performed simultaneously.) This is very useful for verifying the completion of a repair.

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester on. [A]
Start the engine and warm it up until the ECT reaches 75°C (167°F) or higher. [B]
Drive the vehicle at 70 to 100 km/h (44 to 63 mph) for 10 minutes or more. [C]

CAUTION:

When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC [D].
Read the pending DTCs.
Tech Tips
- 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 and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P0136, P0137 or P0138.

Check the DTC judgment result.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips

Intelligent tester only:

Malfunctioning areas can be identified by performing the Control the Injection Volume function provided in the Active Test. The Control the Injection Volume function can help to determine whether the air fuel ratio sensor, heated oxygen sensor and other potential trouble areas are malfunctioning.

The following instructions describe how to conduct the Control the Injection Volume operation using the intelligent tester.

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and turn the tester on.
Warm up the engine at an engine speed of 2500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Injection Volume.
Perform the Active Test operation with the engine idling (press the RIGHT or LEFT button to change the fuel injection volume).
Monitor the output voltages of the air fuel ratio and heated oxygen sensors (AFS Voltage B1S1 and O2S B1S2) displayed on the tester.

Tech Tips

Change the fuel injection volume within the range of -12.0% to +12.0%. The injection volume can be changed in fine gradations.
Each sensor reacts in accordance with increases and decreases in the fuel injection volume.

Tester Display (Sensor)	Injection Volume	Status	Voltage
AFS Voltage B1S1 (Air fuel ratio)	+12%	Rich	Less than 3.1 V
AFS Voltage B1S1 (Air fuel ratio)	-12%	Lean	More than 3.4 V
O2S B1S2 (Heated oxygen)	+12%	Rich	More than 0.55 V
O2S B1S2 (Heated oxygen)	-12%	Lean	Less than 0.4 V

Note

The air fuel ratio sensor has an output delay of a few seconds and the heated oxygen sensor has a maximum output delay of approximately 20 seconds.

Following the Control the Injection Volume procedure enables technicians to check and graph the voltage outputs of both the air fuel ratio and heated oxygen sensors.
To display the graph, enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Injection Volume / AFS Voltage B1S1 and O2S B1S2; then press the view button.

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.
If the OX1B wire from the ECM connector is short-circuited to the +B wire, DTC P0136 will be stored.
Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closest to the engine assembly.
Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farthest away from the engine assembly.

The air fuel ratio sensor is displayed as AFS Voltage B1S1, and the heated oxygen sensor is displayed as O2S B1S2 on the intelligent tester.
The air fuel ratio sensor has an output delay of a few seconds and the heated oxygen sensor has a maximum output delay of approximately 20 seconds.
If the output voltage has almost no change, the air fuel ratio sensor may have a malfunction.

Result
