Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Detecting Criteria

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

• Abnormality Judgement

1) Judge as NG when the judgment value is larger than the threshold value after deceleration fuel cut.
Response time (diagnosis value) > threshold value

o abnormal

2) If the oxygen sensor voltage is small after recovering from a deceleration fuel cut, and remains small,
judge as NG.

Time Needed for Diagnosis: 1 time(s)
Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cy-
cles.

• Normality Judgement

1) Regardless of a deceleration fuel cut, if the response time (diagnosis value) when the oxygen sensor volt-
age has changed from rich to lean is shorter than the threshold value (judgment value), judge as a normal
condition.
Response time (diagnosis value)

d threshold value o normal

2) Do not judge as a normal condition.

Judge as OK and clear the NG if the following conditions are established.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

AI: DTC P0140 O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT NO ACTIVITY DETECTED

(BANK1 SENSOR2)

1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

Detect the rear oxygen sensor open or short circuit. Judge as NG when the rear oxygen sensor voltage can
be determined to be abnormal considering conditions such as intake air amount, engine coolant tempera-
ture, main feedback control and deceleration fuel cut.

2. COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

3. ENABLE CONDITION (USED ONLY FOR MALFUNCTION JUDGMENT)

4. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE

Perform the diagnosis once after starting the engine.

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Detecting Criteria

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

AJ:DTC P0171 SYSTEM TOO LEAN (BANK 1)

1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

Detect fuel system malfunction by the amount of main feedback control.

Diagnostic method

Fuel system is diagnosed by comparing the target air fuel ratio calculated by ECM with the actual air fuel ratio
measured by sensor.

2. ENABLE CONDITION

3. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE

Perform the diagnosis continuously at idling or at a constant speed after warming up the engine.

4. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD

• Abnormality Judgement

Compare the diagnosed value (fsobd) with the threshold value, and if a condition meeting the malfunction cri-
teria below continues for 10 s × 5 time(s) or more, judge that there is a fault in the fuel system.
