## DESCRIPTION

The Air-fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor generates voltage* in response to the actual air-fuel ratio. This sensor output voltage provide feedback to the ECM. The ECM uses the feedback to control the air-fuel ratio. Using the sensor output voltage, the ECM determines the deviation from the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio, and regulates the injection time. If the A/F sensor is malfunctioning, the ECM is unable to control the air-fuel ratio accurately.
The A/F sensor is equipped with a heater which heats the zirconia element. The heater is also controlled by the ECM. When the intake air volume is low (the temperature of the exhaust gas is low), a current flows to the heater to heat the sensor to facilitate the detection of accurate oxygen concentration.
The A/F sensor is a planar type. Compared to the conventional type, the sensor and heater portions are narrower. The heat of the heater is conducted to the zirconia element through the alumina, accelerating sensor activation.
To obtain a high purification rate of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbon (HC) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) in the exhaust gas, a Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) is used. The TWC is most efficient when the air-fuel ratio is maintained near the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.

## INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

  Intelligent tester only:

  Malfunctioning areas can found by performing the Active Test / Control the Injection volume for A/F sensor operation. The "Control the injection volume for A/F sensor" operation can determine if the A/F sensor, heated oxygen sensor or other potential trouble areas are malfunctioning or not.

Perform the Active Test using the intelligent tester.

HINT:

  "Control the injection volume for A/F sensor" is an Active Test which changes the injection volume to -12.5% or +25%.

1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
2. Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
3. Warm up the engine by running the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the injection volume for A/F sensor.
5. Enter the following monitor items: AFS B1S1 and O2S B1S2 or AFS B2S1 and O2S B2S2.
6. Perform the "Control the injection volume for A/F sensor" operation with the engine in a idling condition (press the right or left button).

HINT:

1. The "Control the injection volume for A/F sensor" operation lowers the fuel injection volume by 12.5% or increases the injection volume by 25%.

1. Each sensor reacts in accordance with increases and decreases in the fuel injection volume.

Standard:
Tester Display (Sensor) | Injection Volume | Status | Voltage
AFS B1S1 or AFS B2S1 (A/F) | +25% | Rich | Less than 3.0
AFS B1S1 or AFS B2S1 (A/F) | -12.5% | Lean | More than 3.35
O2S B1S2 or O2S B2S2 (heated oxygen sensor) | +25% | Rich | More than 0.55
O2S B1S2 or O2S B2S2 (heated oxygen sensor) | -12.5% | Lean | Less than 0.4

NOTICE:

  The A/F sensor has an output delay of a few seconds and the heated oxygen sensor has a maximum output delay of approximately 20 seconds.

Case | A/F Sensor (Sensor 1) Output Voltage | Heated Oxygen Sensor (Sensor 2) Output Voltage | Main Suspected Trouble Areas

1. Following the A/F CONTROL procedure enables technicians to check and graph the voltage outputs of both the A/F and heated oxygen sensors.
2. Enter the following menus on the tester: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the injection volume for A/F sensor and Data List / AFS B1S1 and O2S B1S2 or AFS B2S1 and O2S B2S2.

HINT:

1. Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
2. These DTCs are related to the A/F sensor.
3. These DTCs are recorded when A/F sensor has malfunction, although the caption is oxygen sensor.

1.CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO P2195, P2196, P2197 OR P2198)

1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.

1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.

1. Read the DTCs.

   Result:

   HINT:
     If any DTCs other than P2195, P2196, P2197 or P2198 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

2.READ DATA LIST (OUTPUT VOLTAGE OF A/F SENSOR)

1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

1. Warm up the A/F sensors (bank 1, 2 sensor 1) with the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.

1. Read A/F sensor voltage output on the intelligent tester.

1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.

1. Select AFS B1S1 or AFS B2S1 / Engine Speed.

1. Monitor the A/F sensor voltage carefully.

1. Check the A/F sensor voltage under the condition as follows.
   (1) Allow engine to idle for 30 seconds.
   (2) Engine is racing at approximately 2,500 rpm (when engine revolution is not suddenly changed).
   (3) Raise the engine speed to 4,000 rpm and release the accelerator pedal fully closed quickly.

   Standard:
     Condition (1) and (2)
     Voltage change in the vicinity of 3.3 V (between approximately 3.1 to 3.5 V) as shown in the illustration.
     Condition (3)
     A/F senor voltage increases to 3.8 V or more during engine deceleration (when fuel cut) as shown in the illustration.

   HINT:
   1. Whenever the output voltage of the A/F sensor remains at approximately 3.3 V (see malfunction condition diagram) under any condition as well as the above conditions, the A/F sensor may have an open circuit. (this will also happen when the A/F sensor heater has an open circuit.)
   2. Whenever the output voltage of the A/F sensor remains at a certain value of approximately 3.8 V or more, or 2.8 V or less (see malfunction condition diagram) under any condition as well as the above conditions, the A/F sensor may have a short circuit.
   3. The ECM will stop fuel injection (fuel cut) during engine deceleration. This will cause a lean condition and should result in a momentary increase in the A/F sensor output voltage.
   4. The ECM must establish a closed throttle position learned value to perform fuel cut. If the battery terminal has been disconnected, the vehicle must be driven over (10 mph) to allow the ECM to learn the closed throttle position.
   5. When the vehicle is driven:
      In the case that the output voltage of the A/F sensor is below 2.8 V during fuel enrichment (for example, when the vehicle tries to overtake another vehicle on a highway, the vehicle speed is suddenly increased with the accelerator pedal fully depressed), the A/F sensor is functioning normally.
   6. The A/F sensor is a current output element, and therefore the current is converted into voltage inside the ECM. If measuring the voltage at connectors of the A/F sensor or ECM, you will obtain a constant voltage.
