TROUBLESHOOTING

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-67

Code No. P0135: Oxygen Sensor Heater (Front) System <Sensor 1>

OPERATION

œ

Power is supplied to the heater power terminal
(terminal No. 1) of the oxygen sensor (front) con-
nector from the engine control relay (terminal No.
1).

œ

The heater (terminal No. 3) of the oxygen sensor
(front) connector is controlled by the power tran-
sistor in the engine-ECU (terminal No. 60).

FUNCTION

œ

The power supply to the oxygen sensor heater
(front) is controlled by the ON/OFF control of the
power transistor in the engine-ECU.

œ

Heating the oxygen sensor heater (front) enables
the oxygen sensor to provide good response
even when the exhaust emission temperature is
low.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT

Check Conditions

œ

The engine coolant temperature is approximately.
20

•

C or higher.

œ

The oxygen sensor heater (front) is in "ON" posi-
tion.

œ

The engine speed is 50 r/min or more.

œ

The battery voltage is 11

-

16 V.

Judgment Criteria

œ

The heater current of oxygen sensor heater
(front) is below 0.2 A or above 3.5 A for 1 second.

PROBABLE CAUSE

œ

Failed oxygen sensor heater

œ

Open/short circuit in oxygen sensor (front) circuit
or loose connector contact

œ

Failed engine-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Connector check: B-112 oxygen sensor
(front) connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2 .

NO :

Repair.

STEP 2. Measure resistance at B-112 oxygen
sensor (front) connector.

œ

Disconnect connector, and measure at sensor
side.

œ

Resistance between terminal No. 1 and No. 3.

OK: 4.5

-

8.0

W

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 3 .

NO :

Replace oxygen sensor (front).

STEP 3. Measure voltage at B-112 oxygen sensor
(front) connector.

œ

Disconnect connector, and measure at harness
side.

œ

Ignition switch: ON

œ

Voltage between terminal No. 1 and earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5 .

NO :

Go to Step 4 .

STEP 4. Connector check: B-17X engine control
relay connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Check and repair harness between B-112

(terminal No. 1) oxygen sensor connector
and B-17X (terminal No. 1) engine control
relay connector.

œ

Check power supply line for
open/short circuit.

NO :

Repair.

STEP 5. Measure voltage at C-136 engine-ECU
connector.

œ

Measure engine-ECU terminal voltage.

œ

Ignition switch: ON

œ

Voltage between terminal No. 60 and earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 8 .

NO :

Go to Step 6 .

STEP 6. Connector check: C-136 engine-ECU
connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 7 .

NO :

Repair.
