DTC Logic

INFOID:0000000009178162

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

The heated oxygen sensor 2 has a much longer switching time

between rich and lean than the air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor 1. The oxy-

gen storage capacity of the three way catalyst 1 causes the longer

switching time. To judge the malfunctions of heated oxygen sensor

2, ECM monitors whether the switching response of the sensor's

voltage is faster than specified during various driving conditions such

as fuel cut.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

INSPECTION START

Do you have CONSULT?
Do you have CONSULT?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

>> GO TO 7.

PRECONDITIONING

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following procedure

before conducting the next test.

1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

2. Turn ignition switch ON.

3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

TESTING CONDITION:

For better results, perform “DTC WORK SUPPORT” at a temperature of 0 to 30

°C (32 to 86°F).

>> GO TO 3.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

With CONSULT

1. Turn ignition switch ON and select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT.

2. Start engine and warm it up to the normal operating temperature.

3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

4. Turn ignition switch ON.

5. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

6. Start engine and keep the engine speed between 3,500 and 4,000 rpm for at least 1 minute under no load.

7. Let engine idle for 1 minute.

8. Make sure that “COOLANT TEMP/S” indicates more than 70

°C (158°F).

9. Drive the vehicle in a proper gear at 60 km/h (38MPH) and maintain the speed.

CAUTION:

SEF302U

DTC No.

Possible cause

P0139

HO2S2 (B1)
(O2 sensor circuit slow re-
sponse bank 1 sensor 2)

The switching time between rich and lean of a
heated oxygen sensor 2 signal delays more
than the specified time computed by ECM.

• Harness or connectors

(The sensor circuit is open or shorted)

• Heated oxygen sensor 2
• Fuel system
• EVAP system
• Intake air system

P0139, P0159 HO2S2

Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.

10. Release the accelerator pedal fully at least 5 seconds.

CAUTION:

• Enable the engine brake.

• Always drive carefully.

• Never apply brake when releasing the accelerator pedal.

11. Repeat step 9 and 10 at least 8 times.

12. Check the following item of “DATA MONITOR”.

Is “CMPLT” displayed on CONSULT screen?

YES

>> GO TO 6.

NO-1: “CMPLT” is not displayed on DIAG 1>>Perform DTC confirmation procedure again.

NO-2: “CMPLT” is not displayed on DIAG 2>>GO TO 4.

PERFORM DTC WORK SUPPORT

1. Open engine hood.

2. Select “HO2S2 (B1) P0139” or “HO2S2 (B2) P0159” of “HO2S2” in “DTC WORK SUPPORT” mode with

CONSULT.

3. Start engine and follow the instruction of CONSULT display.

NOTE:

It will take at most 10 minutes until “COMPLETED” is displayed.

Is “COMPLETED” displayed on CONSULT screen?

YES

>> GO TO 6.

>> GO TO 5.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE AGAIN

1. Turn ignition switch OFF and leave the vehicle in a cool place (soak the vehicle).

2. Perform DTC confirmation procedure again.

>> GO TO 3.

PERFORM SELF-DIAGNOSIS

With CONSULT

Perform ECM self-diagnosis.
Is DTC “P0139” or “P0159” detected?

YES

>> Proceed to

EC-242, "Diagnosis Procedure"

>> INSPECTION END

PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK

Perform component function check. Refer to

EC-241, "Component Function Check"

NOTE:

Use component function check to check the overall function of the heated oxygen sensor 2 circuit. During this

check, a 1st trip DTC might not be confirmed.
Is the inspection result normal?

YES
