Acura RL. Manual - part 88

 

 

Malfunction Threshold 

The IPB2 terminal voltage is 5.6 V or more, or 2.0 V or less, 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.

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 a specified value or less, the PCM detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.

Malfunction Threshold 

The IPB2 input terminal voltage is 1.0 V or less for at least 5 seconds*, 85 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.

Fig. 285: Rear Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor Monitor Execution 

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. 

When the VSB1 terminal voltage repeatedly fluctuates between a value above the specification and a value 
below the specification at a certain frequency, the PCM detects a malfunction and a DTC is stored.
