Detection Condition

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mazda Tribute. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Detects the presence of oxygen in the exhaust and produces a variable voltage (0.0-1.1 volts) according to the amount of oxygen detected. A high concentration of oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in exhaust, produces a low voltage signal (less than 0.4 volt). A low concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) in exhaust, produces a high voltage signal (more than 0.6 volt). Provides feedback to PCM indicating air/fuel ratio in order to achieve a near stoichiometric air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1 during closed loop engine operation.
