Diagnostic Procedures

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Isuzu Hombre. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Perform On-Board Diagnostic II (OBD-II) System Check. See SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - INTRODUCTION article. Retrieve and record FREEZE FRAME and/or FAIL RECORDS data for each DTC set. Go to next step.
  2. Ensure Tech 2 scan tool is installed. Start and warm engine to normal operating temperature. Place gear selector in Park or Neutral, and apply parking brake. Increase engine speed to greater than 1200 RPM for 2 minutes. Using scan tool, read LOOP MODE. If scan tool displays CLOSED LOOP, go to step  5. If scan tool displays OPEN LOOP, go to next step.
  3. Turn ignition off. Disconnect HO2S connector. Using Connector Test Adapter (J346-A/BT-8637), connect HO2S signal circuit (Tan wire) and low circuit (Purple wire) to chassis ground. Turn ignition on, engine off. If voltage is less than 0.2 volt, go to next step. If voltage is not less than 0.2 volt, go to step  6.
  4. Turn ignition off. Remove jumper wire. Using DVOM, measure voltage between HO2S low circuit (Purple wire) and battery voltage. If 12 volts is indicated, go to step  7. If 12 volts is not indicated, go to step  9.
  5. DTC P0154 is intermittent. If any additional DTCs are set, diagnose affected DTCs. If no additional DTCs are set, go to DIAGNOSTIC AIDS .
  6. Check HO2S harness connector signal circuit (Tan wire) for open. If open is found, go to step  11. If no open is found, go to step  8.
  7. Check HO2S for faulty connection. If faulty connection is found, go to step  11. If connection is okay, go to step  10.
  8. Check VCM for faulty connection. If faulty connection is found, go to step  11. If faulty connection is not found, go to step  12.
  9. Repair open ground circuit (Black wire). After repairs, go to step  13.
  10. Replace HO2S. After replacing sensor, go to step  13.
  11. Repair circuit(s) as necessary. After repairs, go to step  13.
  12. Replace VCM. Program replacement VCM. See PROGRAMMING . After replacing VCM, go to next step.
  13. Using scan tool, select DTC, CLEAR INFO function. Start engine and allow it to reach operating temperature. Using scan tool, select DTC, SPECIFIC function and enter DTC P0154. Operate vehicle within conditions required to set DTC. If scan tool displays RAN AND PASSED, go to next step. If scan tool does not display RAN AND PASSED, return to step  2.
  14. Using scan tool, select Read and Record INFO, REVIEW INFO function. If any undiagnosed DTCs are displayed, diagnose affected DTCs. If no DTCs are displayed, system is okay.
