Judgement Criteria

• Making the air/fuel ratio 15 percent richer for 10

seconds does not result in raising the heated oxy-
gen sensor (front) output voltage beyond 0.2 volt.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this code to be set are:)

• Cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) failed.

• Short circuit in cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sen-

sor (front) output line.

• Connector damage.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

• MD998464: Test Harness

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 11:
Cylinder 2, 3 Heated Oxygen Sensor (front).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.

(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

11, Cylinder 2, 3 Heated Oxygen Sensor (front).

• Warm up the engine. When the engine is revved, the

output voltage should measure 0.6 to 1.0 volt.

• Warm up the engine. When the engine is idling, the out-

put voltage should repeat 0.4 volt and 0.6 to 1.0 volt
alternately.

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

P.00-6

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor
(front).

(1) Disconnect the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front)

connector B-36 and connect test harness special tool
MB991316 to the connector on the cylinder 2, 3 heated
oxygen sensor (front) side.

(2) Warm up the engine until engine coolant temperature

reaches 80

°C (176°F) or higher.

(3) Perform a racing for 5 minutes or more with the engine

speed of 4,500 r/min.

(4) Connect a digital voltage meter between terminal No. 2

(black clip) and terminal No. 4 (white clip).

(5) While repeatedly revving the engine, measure the cylinder

2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) output voltage.

Standard value: 0.6

− 1.0 volt

CAUTION

• Be very careful when connecting the jumper wires;

incorrect connection can damage the heated oxygen
sensor (front).

• Be careful the heater is broken when voltage of beyond

8 volts is applied to the heated oxygen sensor (front)
heater.
NOTE: If the sufficiently high temperature [of approximate
400

°

C (752

°

F) or more] is not reached although the heated

oxygen sensor (front) is normal, the output voltage would be
possibly low although the rich air/fuel ratio. Therefore, if the
output voltage is low, use a jumper wire to connect the ter-
minal No. 1 (red clip) and the terminal No. 3 (blue clip) of
the heated oxygen sensor (front) with the positive terminal
and the negative terminal of 8 volts power supply respec-
tively, then check again.

Q: Is the measured voltage between 0.6 and 1.0 volt?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor

(front). Then go to Step 5.

STEP 3. Check harness connector B-36 at cylinder 2, 3
heated oxygen sensor (front) and harness connector B-22
at PCM for damage.

Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection
