DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES

13Ac-173

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• A voltage corresponding to the oxygen concen-

tration in the exhaust gas is sent to the PCM (ter-
minal No. 117) from the output terminal (terminal 
No. 4) of the right bank heated oxygen sensor 
(rear).

• Terminal No. 2 of the right bank heated oxygen 

sensor (rear) is grounded with PCM (terminal No. 
96).

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The output signal of the right bank heated oxygen 

sensor (front) is compensated by the output sig-
nal of the right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear).

• The PCM checks for an open circuit in the right 

bank heated oxygen sensor (rear) output line.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions

• 2 seconds or more have passed since the start-

ing sequence was completed.

Judgment Criteria

• Right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear) output 

voltage has continued to be 1.2 volts or higher for 
2 seconds.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
causes for this code to be set are: )

• Short circuit in right bank heated oxygen sensor 

(rear) ground line.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES

13Ac-174

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

STEP 1. Check connector C-14 at right bank heated 
oxygen sensor (rear) and connector D-135 at PCM for 
damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 3.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES

13Ac-175

STEP 2. Check for short circuit to power supply between 
right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear) connector C-14 
(terminal No. 4) and PCM connector D-135 (terminal No. 
117).
NOTE: Check harness after checking intermediate connector 
E-112. If intermediate connector E-112 is damaged, repair or 
replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspec-
tion 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 3.

Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Perform the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

GROUP 13A, Trouble Code Diagnosis 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle 

− Procedure 6 − Other Monitor 

P.13Ab-2

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0138 set?

YES : Repeat the troubleshooting.
NO :  The procedure is complete.
