MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM uses information from the Air-Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor to regulate the air-fuel ratio and keep it close
to the stoichiometric level. This maximizes the ability of the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) to purify
the exhaust gases.

The A/F sensor detects oxygen levels in the exhaust gas and transmits the information to the ECM. The inner
surface of the sensor element is exposed to the outside air. The outer surface of the sensor element is exposed to
the exhaust gas. The sensor element is made of platinum coated zirconia and includes an integrated heating
element.

The zirconia element generates a small voltage when there is a large difference in the oxygen concentrations
between the exhaust gas and outside air. The platinum coating amplifies this voltage generation.

The A/F sensor is more efficient when heated. When the exhaust gas temperature is low, the sensor cannot
generate useful voltage signals without supplementary heating. The ECM regulates the supplementary heating
using a duty-cycle approach to adjust the average current in the sensor heater element. If the heater current is
outside the normal range, the signal transmitted by the A/F sensor becomes inaccurate. As a result, the ECM is
unable to regulate air-fuel ratio properly.

When the current in the A/F sensor heater is outside the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a
malfunction in the sensor heater and sets a DTC.

Example:

The ECM sets DTC P0032 or P0052 when the current in the A/F sensor heater is more than 10 A. Conversely,
when the heater current is less than 0.8 A, DTC P0031 or P0051 is set.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when
malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
moving or stationary, 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.

1. INSPECT AIR FUEL RATIO SENSOR (HEATER RESISTANCE)

a. Disconnect the D33 or D34 A/F sensor connector.

b. Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
