  1. CL = Closed loop using HO2S(s) as feedback for fuel control.
  2. OL DRIVE = Open loop due to driving conditions (heavy acceleration).
  3. OL FAULT = Open loop due to fault with all upstream HO2S sensors.
  4. CL FAULT = Closed loop fuel control, but fault with one upstream HO2S sensor on dual bank vehicles.

a OL = Open loop, have not satisfied conditions for closed loop.

b Percent engine load adjusted for atmospheric pressure.
