13A-227

STEP 5. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and delete the 

DTC.

(3) Carry out the test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 22 

P.13A-11

.

(4) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0131 set?

YES : Then go to Step 6.
NO :  It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/ 
Inspection Service Points 

− How to Cope with 

Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-15

.

STEP 6. Replace the linear air-fuel ratio sensor.
(1) Replace the linear air-fuel ratio sensor.
(2) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 22 

P.13A-11

.

(3) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0131 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, 

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis 
− ID Code Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles 

with KOS> 

P.42B-15

 or GROUP 42C, Diagnosis 

− ID 

Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with 
WCM> 

P.42C-10

. Then go to Step 7.

NO :  The inspection is complete.

STEP 7. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 22 

P.13A-11

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0131 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The linear air-fuel ratio sensor and the ECM are con-
nected by the following three lines to detect the 
air-fuel ratio.

• The line between the linear air-fuel ratio sensor 

(terminal No. 1) and the ECM (terminal No. 56) 
detects the air-fuel ratio.

• The auxiliary line between the linear air-fuel ratio 

sensor (terminal No. 4) and the ECM (terminal 
No. 38) detects the air-fuel ratio.

• The line between the linear air-fuel ratio sensor 

(terminal No. 5) and the ECM (terminal No. 39) is 
connected to ground.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The ECM effects air/fuel ratio feedback control in 

accordance with the signals from the linear 
air-fuel ratio sensor.

• If the linear air-fuel ratio sensor has deteriorated, 

corrections will be made by the heated oxygen 
sensor (rear).

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

• If one of the three line voltages is excessively 

high or if all the three line voltages are exces-
sively high, the DTC is stored as a malfunction.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

Check Conditions

• Battery positive voltage is between 10 and 16.5 

volts.

• More than 40 seconds have passed since the 

engine starting sequence was completed.

Judgement Criterion

• The pumping circuit voltage is higher than the 

battery positive voltage from which you subtract 
1.2 volt for 2 seconds.

or

• The reference circuit voltage is higher than bat-

tery positive voltage from which you subtract 1.2 
volt for 2 seconds.

or

• The negative circuit voltage is be higher than 6.2 

volts for 2 seconds.
