Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

HINT:

Hand-held tester only:

It is possible the malfunctioning area can be found using the ACTIVE TEST A/F CONTROL operation. The A/F CONTROL operation can determine if the A/F sensor, heated oxygen sensor or other potential trouble areas are malfunctioning or not.

  1. Perform the ACTIVE TEST A/F CONTROL operation.

    HINT:

    The A/F CONTROL operation lowers the injection volume 12.5% or increases the injection volume 25%.

    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3 on the vehicle.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    3. Warm up the engine by running the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
    4. Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/ACTIVE TEST/A/F CONTROL.
    5. Perform the A/F CONTROL operation with the engine idle (press the right or left button).

    Result: 

    A/F sensor reacts in accordance with increase and decrease of injection volume: 

    +25 % --> RICH output: Less than 3.0 V 

    -12.5 % --> LEAN output: More than 3.35 V 

    Heated oxygen sensor reacts in accordance with increase and decrease of injection volume: 

    +25 % --> RICH output: More than 0.55 V 

    -12.5 % --> LEAN output: Less than 0.4 V 

    NOTE: The A/F sensor output has a few seconds of delay and the heated oxygen sensor output has about 20 seconds of delay.

    The following A/F CONTROL procedure enables a technician to check and graph the voltage outputs of both the A/F sensor and the heated oxygen sensor.

    For displaying the graph, enter "ACTIVE TEST/A/F CONTROL/USER DATA", select "AFS B1S1 and O2S B1S2" by pressing "YES" and push "ENTER". Then press "F4".

    HINT:

    • If DTC P2195 or P2196 is displayed, check bank 1 sensor 1 circuit.
    • A low A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a RICH air-fuel mixture. Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run with a RICH air-fuel mixture.
    • A high A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a LEAN air-fuel mixture. Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run with a LEAN air-fuel mixture.
    • Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, 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.
  1. CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO A/F SENSOR DTC) 
    1. Read the DTC using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

      Result: 

      DTC OUTPUT RESULT

      Display Proceed to
      A/F sensor circuit DTC are output A
      A/F sensor circuit DTC and other codes are output B

      HINT:

      If any other codes besides A/F sensor DTC are output, perform the troubleshooting for those DTCs first.

    1. B: GO TO RELEVANT DTC CHART (See  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART  ) 
    2. A: GO TO NEXT STEP. 
  2. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBD II SCAN TOOL (OUTPUT VOLT- AGE OF A/F SENSOR) 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
    2. Warm up the A/F sensor (bank 1 sensor 1) by running the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
    3. Read A/F sensor voltage output on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.
    4. Hand-held tester only:

      On the hand-held tester, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/SNAPSHOT/MANUAL SNAPSHOT/USER DATA. Read the values.

    5. Select "AFS B1S1/ENGINE SPD" and press YES.
    6. Monitor the A/F sensor voltage carefully.
    7. Check the A/F sensor voltage output under the following conditions:
      1. Allow the engine to idle for 30 seconds.
      2. Run the engine at approximately 2,500 rpm. Do not suddenly change the rpm.
      3. Raise the engine to 4,000 rpm and quickly release the accelerator pedal so that the throttle is fully closed.

      Standard: 

      Condition (1) and (2) 

      Voltage change of 3.3 V (0.66 V)* (between approximately 3.1 to 3.5 V) as shown in the illustration. 

      Condition (3) 

      A/F sensor voltage increases to 3.8 V (0.76 V)* or more during engine deceleration when fuel is cut as shown in the illustration. 

      *: Voltage when using the OBD II scan tool.

      HINT:

      • Whenever the A/F sensor output voltage remains at approximately 3.3 V (0.660 V) on scan tool under any condition as well as the above conditions, the A/F sensor may have an open circuit. This will happen also when the A/F sensor heater has an open circuit. See Fig 2.
      • Whenever the A/F sensor output voltage remains at a certain value of approximately 3.8 V (0.76 V) on scan tool or more, or 2.8 V (0.56 V) on scan tool or less under any condition as well as the above conditions, the A/F sensor may have a short circuit. See Fig 2.
      • The ECM will stop fuel injection (fuel is cut) during engine deceleration. This will cause a LEAN condition and should result in a momentary increase in the A/F sensor output voltage.
      • The ECM must establish a closed throttle position learned value to perform fuel cut. If the battery terminal has been disconnected, the vehicle must be driven over 10 mph (16 km/h) to allow the ECM to learn the closed throttle position.
      • When the vehicle is driven:
      • The output voltage of the A/F sensor may be below 2.8 V (0.76 V) on scan tool during fuel enrichment. For the vehicle, this translates to a sudden increase in speed with the accelerator pedal fully depressed when trying to overtake another vehicle. The A/F sensor is functioning normally.
      • The A/F sensor is a current output element, and therefore the current is converted into voltage inside the ECM. If measuring voltage at connectors of A/F sensor or ECM, you will observe a constant voltage.
