WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
PCM monitors rear HO2S heater control signal at PCM 30-pin harness connector terminal "4D" (White/Green wire). If PCM turns rear HO2S heater off but rear HO2S heater circuit has low voltage, PCM determines that rear HO2S heater circuit has malfunction. This is a Continuous Monitor (HO2S heater). MIL illuminates if PCM detects malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while DTC for same malfunction has been stored in PCM. PENDING CODE is available if PCM detects malfunction condition during first drive cycle. FREEZE FRAME DATA is available. DTC is stored in PCM memory.
