A/F Sensor Current Inspection
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
- Using the M-MDS, monitor the following:
- Vehicle speed (PID: VSS)
- Engine speed (PID: RPM)
- A/F sensor current (PID: O2S11)
- Drive the vehicle and decelerate the engine speed by releasing the accelerator pedal fully when the engine speed is 3,000 RPM or more.
- Verify that the A/F sensor current (PID: O2S11) is 0.25 mA or more while decelerating as shown in the figure.
- If not within the specification, replace the A/F sensor. (See AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L5] .)
