DTC Diagnosis Procedure

  1. INSPECTION START 
    1. Confirm the detected malfunction (A or B). Refer to DTC Description .

    Which malfunction is detected?

    A>>

    GO TO 2.

    B>>

    GO TO 7.

  2. CHECK HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR 2 CONNECTOR 
    1. Disconnect heated oxygen sensor 2 (HO2S2) harness connector.
    2. Check that water is not inside connectors.
    There is no leakage.

    Is the inspection result normal?

    >>

    GO TO 3.

    >>

    Repair or replace malfunctioning part.

  3. CHECK HO2S2 GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    3. Disconnect heated oxygen sensor 2 (HO2S2) harness connector.
    4. Check the continuity between HO2S2 harness connector and ECM harness connector.

  6. REPLACE HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR 2 

    Replace malfunctioning heated oxygen sensor 2. Refer to Exploded View .

    CAUTION:
    • Discard any heated oxygen sensor which has been dropped from a height of more than 0.5 m (19.7 in) onto a hard surface such as a concrete floor; use a new one.
    • Before installing new oxygen sensor, clean exhaust system threads.
