Subaru Crosstrek Service Manual: Dtc p0138 o2 sensor circuit high voltage bank 1 sensor 2

DTC detecting condition:

Detected when two consecutive driving cycles with fault occur.

CAUTION:

After servicing or replacing faulty parts, perform Clear Memory Mode Clear Memory Mode > OPERATION">, and Inspection Mode Inspection Mode > PROCEDURE">.

1.CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR DATA.

1) Warm up the engine until engine coolant temperature is higher than 75°C (167°F), and rapidly reduce the engine speed from 3,000 rpm.

2) Read the value of «Rear O2 Sensor Voltage» using the Subaru Select Monitor or a general scan tool.

NOTE:

• Subaru Select Monitor

For detailed operation procedures, refer to “Current Data Display For Engine”. Subaru Select Monitor">

• General scan tool

For detailed operation procedures, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.

Is the value of «Rear O2 Sensor Voltage» 0.250 V or less?

Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0138 O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH VOLTAGE BANK 1 SENSOR 2">Go to Step 5.

Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0138 O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH VOLTAGE BANK 1 SENSOR 2">Go to Step 2.

2.CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR AND COUPLING CONNECTOR.

Has water entered the connector?

Completely remove any water inside.

Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0138 O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH VOLTAGE BANK 1 SENSOR 2">Go to Step 3.

3.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Disconnect the connector from ECM.

3) Disconnect the connector from rear oxygen sensor.

4) Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector.

Connector & terminal

(B136) No. 21 — (E25) No. 3:

(B135) No. 30 — (E25) No. 4:

Is the resistance less than 1 ??

Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0138 O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH VOLTAGE BANK 1 SENSOR 2">Go to Step 4.

Repair the harness and connector.

NOTE:

In this case, repair the following item:

• Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector

• Poor contact of coupling connector

4.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR.

1) Connect the connector to ECM.

2) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

3) Measure the voltage between rear oxygen sensor connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(E25) No. 3 (+) — Chassis ground (−):

Is the voltage 0.2 — 0.5 V?

Replace the rear oxygen sensor. Rear Oxygen Sensor">

Repair the harness and connector.

NOTE:

In this case, repair the following item:

• Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector

• Poor contact of coupling connector

• Poor contact of ECM connector

5.CHECK EXHAUST SYSTEM.

Check exhaust system parts.

NOTE:

Check the following items.

• Looseness and improper fitting of exhaust system parts

• Damage (crack, hole etc.) of parts

• Loose part and improper installation between front oxygen (A/F) sensor and rear oxygen sensor

Is there any fault in exhaust system?

Repair or replace faulty parts.

Replace the rear oxygen sensor. Rear Oxygen Sensor">
