DESCRIPTION

The heated oxygen sensor is used to monitor the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas. For optimum catalytic converter operation, the air fuel mixture must be maintained near the ideal stoichiometric air fuel ratio. The heated oxygen sensor output voltage changes suddenly in the vicinity of the stoichiometric air fuel ratio. The ECM adjusts the fuel injection time so that the air fuel ratio is nearly stoichiometric. The heated oxygen sensor generates a voltage between 0 and 1 V in response to the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas.

If the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas increases, the air fuel ratio is described as lean. The heated oxygen sensor voltage drops to below 0.45 V and the heated oxygen sensor informs the ECM of the lean condition. If there is little oxygen in the exhaust gas, the air fuel ratio is described as rich. The heated oxygen sensor voltage increases to above 0.45 V and the heated oxygen sensor informs the ECM of the rich condition.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The sensing portion of the heated oxygen sensor has a zirconia element which is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust. If the zirconia element is at the proper temperature and the difference in the oxygen concentration between the inside and outside surface of the sensor is large, the zirconia element will generate voltage signals. In order to increase the oxygen concentration detecting capacity in the zirconia element, the ECM supplements the heat from the exhaust with heat from a heating element inside the sensor. When the current in the heated oxygen sensor heater is out of the standard operating range, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the heated oxygen sensor heater. The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.


HINT:
·

Read freeze frame data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, 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.

·

Change the fuel injection volume using the Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor function provided in the Active Test and monitor the heated oxygen sensor output voltage. If the sensor output voltage does not change (almost no reaction) while performing the Active Test, the sensor may be malfunctioning.
