Acura RL. Manual - part 87

Malfunction Threshold

The IPB1 terminal voltage is 2.0 V or less, or 5.6 V or more, for at least 15 seconds.

Driving Pattern

Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan
comes on, then let it idle for 2 minutes.

Diagnosis Details

Conditions for illuminating the MIL

When a malfunction is detected, the MIL comes on and the DTC and the freeze frame data are stored in the
PCM memory.

Conditions for clearing the MIL

The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the
diagnostic runs.

The MIL, the DTC, and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear command or by
disconnecting the battery.

Fig. 281: Rear Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) - Circuit Diagram

General Description

The rear air/fuel ratio (A/F) sensor (bank 1, sensor 1) is installed in the exhaust manifold and detects oxygen
content in the exhaust gas. The rear A/F sensor transmits a signal to the powertrain control module (PCM).
The PCM controls fuel injection duration by comparing the target air/fuel ratio with the rear A/F sensor
signal. The sensor includes the VS cell, the pump cell, the atmospheric reference cavity, the diffusion layer,
and the heater, and it enables overall feedback control.

If the IPB1 terminal voltage is a specified value or less, the PCM detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.

Fig. 282: Front Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) - Circuit Diagram

General Description

The front air/fuel ratio (A/F) sensor (bank 2, sensor 1) is installed in the exhaust manifold and detects
oxygen content in the exhaust gas. The front A/F sensor transmits a signal to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The PCM controls fuel injection duration by comparing the target air/fuel ratio with the front A/F
sensor signal. The sensor includes the VS cell, the pump cell, the atmospheric reference cavity, the diffusion
layer, and the heater, and it enables overall feedback control.

If the IPB2 terminal voltage is out of a specified range, the PCM detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.
