Inspection Procedure
HINT:
Techstream only:
Malfunctioning areas can be identified by performing the Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor function provided in the Active Test. The Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor function can help to determine whether the Air Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor, Heated Oxygen (HO2) sensor and other potential trouble areas are malfunctioning.
The following instructions describe how to conduct the Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor operation using the Techstream.
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
- Warm up the engine at an engine speed of 2500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
- On the Techstream, enter the following menus: Powertrain/Engine and ECT/Active Test/Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor.
- Perform the Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor operation with the engine in an idling condition (press the RIGHT or LEFT button to change the fuel injection volume).
- Monitor the output voltages of the A/F and HO2 sensors (AFS B1S1 (AFS B2S1) and O2S B1S2 (O2S B2S2)) displayed on the tester.
HINT:
- The Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor operation lowers the fuel injection volume by 12.5 % or increases the injection volume by 25 %
- Each sensor reacts in accordance with increases and decreases in the fuel injection volume.
Standard voltage:
STANDARD VOLTAGE
| Tester Display (Sensor) | Injection Volume | Status | Voltage |
|---|---|---|---|
| AFS B1S1 (AFS B2S1) (A/F) | +25 % | Rich | Less than 3 0 |
| AFS B1S1 (AFS B2S1) (A/F) | -12 5% | Lean | More than 3 35 |
| O2S B1S2 (O2S B2S2) (HO2) | +25 % | Rich | More than 0 55 |
| O2S B1S2 (O2S B2S2) (HO2) | -12 5% | Lean | Less than 0 4 |
NOTE:
The Air Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor has an output delay of a few seconds and the Heated Oxygen (HO2) sensor has a maximum output delay of approximately 20 seconds.

- Following the Control the Injection Volume for A/F sensor procedure enables technicians to check and graph the voltage outputs of both the A/F and HO2 sensors.
- To display the graph, enter the following menus: Powertrain/Engine and ECT/Active Test/Control the Injection Volume for A/F Sensor/A/F Control System/AFS B1 S1 and O2S B1 S2 or AFS B2 S1 and O2S B2 S2.
HINT:
- DTC P2A00 may be also set when the air fuel ratio is stuck rich or lean.
- A low A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a rich air fuel mixture. Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run rich.
- A high A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a lean air fuel mixture Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run lean.
- Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air/fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.
- CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P2A00 AND/OR P2A03)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain/Engine and ECT/Trouble Codes.
- Read the DTCs.
