STEP 1. Check harness connector C-142 at linear air-fuel
ratio sensor and harness connector B-10 at ECM for
damage.

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 2. Check for open circuit between linear air-fuel ratio
sensor connector C-142 (terminal No. 1) and ECM
connector B-10 (terminal No. 56).
NOTE: Check harness after checking intermediate connector
A-12. If intermediate connector is damaged, repair or replace it.
Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Then go to Step 5.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 3. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.

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) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and delete the

DTC.

(3) Carry out the test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 22

P.13A-11

.

(4) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P2237 set?

YES : Then go to Step 4.
NO : 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

STEP 4. Replace the linear air-fuel ratio sensor.
(1) Replace the linear air-fuel ratio sensor.
(2) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 22

P.13A-11

.

(3) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P2237 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced,

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis
− ID Code Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles

with KOS>

P.42B-15

or GROUP 42C, Diagnosis

. Then go to Step 5.

NO : The inspection is complete.

STEP 5. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 22

P.13A-11

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P2237 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

The linear air-fuel ratio sensor and the ECM are con-
nected by the following three lines to detect the
air-fuel ratio.

• The line between the linear air-fuel ratio sensor

(terminal No. 1) and the ECM (terminal No. 56)
detects the air-fuel ratio.

• The auxiliary line between the linear air-fuel ratio

sensor (terminal No. 4) and the ECM (terminal
No. 38) detects the air-fuel ratio.

• The line between the linear air-fuel ratio sensor

(terminal No. 5) and the ECM (terminal No. 39) is
connected to ground.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The ECM effects air/fuel ratio feedback control in

accordance with the signals from the linear
air-fuel ratio sensor.

• If the linear air-fuel ratio sensor has deteriorated,

corrections will be made by the heated oxygen
sensor (rear).

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

• The linear air-fuel ratio sensor heater or the

exhaust gas heats the linear air-fuel ratio sensor
to sufficiently activate the linear air-fuel ratio sen-
sor, resulting in the small resistance. However,
the DTC is stored as an open circuit if the large
resistance continues.
