DESCRIPTION
Tech Tips
Although the DTC titles say oxygen sensor, these DTCs relate to the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1).
The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) generates voltage* that corresponds to the actual air fuel ratio. This sensor voltage 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 level, and regulates the fuel injection duration. If the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) malfunctions, the ECM is unable to control the air fuel ratio accurately.
The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) is a planar type and integrated with the heater, which heats the solid electrolyte (zirconia element). This heater is controlled by the ECM. When the intake air volume is low (the exhaust gas temperature is low), a current flows into the heater to heat the sensor, in order to facilitate accurate oxygen concentration detection. In addition, the sensor and heater portions are a narrow type. The heat generated by the heater is conducted to the solid electrolyte through the alumina, therefore sensor activation is accelerated.
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 level.
*: Value changes inside the ECM. Since the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) is a current output element, the current is converted into a voltage inside the ECM. Any measurements taken at the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) or ECM connectors will show a constant voltage.

Tech Tips
When any of these DTCs are stored, check the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) currentoutput by entering the following menus on the GTS: Powertrain / Engine / Data List /A/F (O2) Sensor Current B1S1.
Short-term fuel trim values can also be read using the GTS.
If an air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) malfunction is detected, the ECM will store a DTC.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Under air fuel ratio feedback control, If the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) output voltage is less than 2.8 V (very rich condition) for 5 seconds despite the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) output current being -0.0851 mA or higher, the ECM stores DTC P219623. Alternatively, if the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) output voltage is higher than 3.8 V (very lean condition) for 5 seconds despite the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) output current being less than 0.0551 mA, DTC P219524 is stored.
The ECM monitors the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) current during fuel-cut and detects any abnormal current values.
If the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) output is 2.2 mA or more for more than 3 seconds of cumulative time, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) and stores DTC P219519 (stuck on high side). If the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) output is less than 0.47 mA for more than 3 seconds of cumulative time, the ECM stores DTC P219618 (stuck on low side).

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant temperature reaches 75°C (167°F) or higher [A].
Drive the vehicle at a speed between 60 and 120 km/h (37 and 75 mph) for at least 10 minutes [B].
CAUTION:
When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
With the shift lever in M [C], accelerate the vehicle to 64 km/h (40 mph) or more by depressing the accelerator pedal for at least 10 seconds [D].
CAUTION:
When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
Soon after performing step [D] above, release the accelerator pedal for at least 4 seconds without depressing the brake pedal in order to execute fuel-cut control [E].
Tech Tips
Fuel-cut is performed when both of the following conditions are met:
Accelerator pedal is fully released.
Engine speed is 2500 rpm or higher (fuel injection returns at 1400 rpm).
Allow the vehicle to decelerate until the vehicle speed decreases to less than 10 km/h (6 mph).
Repeat steps [C] through [E] above at least 3 times in one driving cycle.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [F].
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 / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P219519, P219524, P219618 or P219623.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
Tech Tips
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 [F] again.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
Tech Tips
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.
A low air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) voltage could be caused by a rich air fuel mixture. Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run rich.
A high air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) voltage could be caused by a lean air fuel mixture. Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run lean.
Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closest to the engine assembly.
Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farthest away from the engine assembly.
PROCEDURE
CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P219519, P219524, P219618 OR P219623)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
Read the DTCs.
