MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MPI) DIAGNOSIS

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MPI)

13A-172

DTC P0132: Heated Oxygen Sensor Circuit High Voltage (bank 1, sensor 1).

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• A voltage corresponding to the oxygen concen-

tration in the exhaust gas is sent to the
ENGINE-ECU (terminal No. 45) from the output
terminal (terminal No. 1) of the right bank heated
oxygen sensor (front).

• Terminal No. 2 of the right bank heated oxygen

sensor (front) is grounded with ENGINE-ECU
(terminal No. 44).

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The right bank heated oxygen sensor (front)

detects the concentration of oxygen in the
exhaust gas; it converts those data to voltage,
and inputs the resulting signals to the
ENGINE-ECU.

• When the right bank heated oxygen sensor

(front) begins to deteriorate, the heated oxygen
sensor signal response becomes poor.

• The ENGINE-ECU forcibly varies the air/fuel mix-

ture to make it leaner and richer, and checks the
response speed of the right bank heated oxygen
sensor (front). In addition, the ENGINE-ECU also
checks for an open circuit in the right bank
heated oxygen sensor (front) output line.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions

• Battery voltage < 11.02 volts

• Engine coolant temperature is higher than 80°C.

Judgment Criteria

• Internal Resistance of the Nernst - cell is equal or

greater than a modelled resistance based on the
heating output of the O2-sensor and the mod-
elled exhasused gas temperature.

• Idling.

• MIL is activated after 2 Drive cycles.

• No limp home.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool, check data list item AC:
Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1, Sensor 1 (right front).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to diagnostic tool, always turn the igni-
tion switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connect-
ing or disconnecting diagnostic tool .
(1) Connect diagnostic tool to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Ensure engine is at running temperature (80

° C or higher).

(4) Set diagnostic tool to the data reading mode for item AC,

Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1, Sensor 1 (right front).

(5) Warm up the engine, hold at 2,500 r/min.

• Output voltage alternates between 0.1 volt and 0.6 − 1.0

volt 10 times or more within 10 seconds.

(6) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

NOTE: If data list readings are consistantly low or appear
slow to cycle( should cycle every 0.5-1.0 sec.) during check
the sensor is likely to be malfuctioning.

Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-14

.

NO : Then go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check harness connector B-09 at right bank
heated oxygen sensor (front) and harness connector B-20
at ENGINE-ECU for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 3. Check for short circuit to power supply between
right bank heated oxygen sensor (front) connector B-09
(terminal No. 1) and ENGINE-ECU connector B-20 (terminal
No. 45).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair or replace it. Then go to Step 5.
