| STEP | CHECK | YES | NO |
1.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:
Is the resistance less than 1 ??
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P013A O2 SENSOR SLOW RESPONSE - RICH TO LEAN BANK 1 SENSOR 2">Go to Step 2.
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
2.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR.
Measure the resistance between rear oxygen sensor connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(E25) No. 3 — Chassis ground:
Is the resistance 1 M? or more?
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P013A O2 SENSOR SLOW RESPONSE - RICH TO LEAN BANK 1 SENSOR 2">Go to Step 3.
Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector.
3.CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR.
Measure the resistance between rear oxygen sensor terminals.
Terminals
No. 3 — No. 4
Is the resistance less than 1 ??
Replace the rear oxygen sensor. Rear Oxygen Sensor">
Even if DTC is detected, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again.
NOTE:
In this case, temporary poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause.
1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
Detect the slow response of rich > lean for rear oxygen sensor output.
When the deceleration fuel cut has occurred, detect the trouble by calculating the time when the rear oxygen sensor output passes through the predetermined range of voltages.
Judge as NG when the response time is larger than the threshold value.
2. COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

(A) | Electromotive force | (B) | Air fuel ratio | (C) | Lean |
(D) | Rich | (E) | Theoretical air fuel ratio | (F) | Comparative voltage |
(1) | Atmosphere | (2) | Exhaust gas | (3) | Electromotive force |
3. EXECUTION CONDITION
Secondary parameters | Execution condition |
Battery voltage | ≥ 10.9 V |
Current calculation time of the rear oxygen sensor heater after starting | ≥ 180000 ms |
Rear oxygen sensor voltage when fuel cut starts | ≥ 0.55 V |
Elapsed time after fuel cut | ≥ 5000 ms |
Rear oxygen sensor estimated element temperature when fuel cut starts | ≥ 500 °C (932 °F) |
4. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE
Perform diagnosis once during deceleration fuel cut from a constant and high speed driving, when rear oxygen sensor is warmed up sufficiently.
5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
Detect the trouble by calculating the response time of the rear oxygen sensor during fuel cut.

(A) | 0.55 V | (B) | 0.50 V | (C) | 0.20 V |
(D) | 0.15 V | (E) | 0 V | (F) | Diagnostic parameter |
(G) | Normal | (H) | Malfunction |
Judge as NG when the following conditions are established.
Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value |
Time needed for rear oxygen sensor voltage to change from 0.5 V to 0.2 V | > 491 ms |
Time needed for diagnosis: Less than 1 second
Malfunction indicator light illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.
