| STEP | CHECK | YES | NO |
1.CHECK FRONT OXYGEN (A/F) SENSOR CONNECTOR AND COUPLING CONNECTOR.
Has water entered the connector?
Completely remove any water inside.

2.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND FRONT OXYGEN (A/F) SENSOR CONNECTOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from ECM.
3) Disconnect the connectors from front oxygen (A/F) sensor.
4) Measure the resistance between ECM connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(B136) No. 18 — Chassis ground:
(B136) No. 19 — Chassis ground:
Is the resistance 1 M? or more?

Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector.
3.CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT.
Check for poor contact of the front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector.
Is there poor contact of front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector?
Repair the poor contact of front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector.
Replace the front oxygen (A/F) sensor. Front Oxygen (A/F) Sensor">
1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
Detect the open or short circuit of sensor.
Judge as NG, when the element voltage is out of the specified range.
2. COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

(D) | Lean | ||||
(1) | Exhaust gas | (2) | Zirconia element oxygen |
3. EXECUTION CONDITION
Secondary Parameters | Execution condition |
Battery voltage | ≥ 10.9 V |
4. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE
Always perform the diagnosis continuously.
5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
If the duration of time while the following conditions are met is longer than the time indicated, judge as NG.
Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value |
Input voltage (+) | < 0.4 V |
or | |
Input voltage (−) | < 0.4 V |
or | |
|Input voltage (+) − Input voltage (−)| | < 0.1 V |
ECM input voltage (−) | > 3.8 V and < 4.7 V |
Time Needed for Diagnosis:
Input voltage (+): 1000 ms
Input voltage (−): 1000 ms
Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates as soon as a malfunction occurs.
