Inspection Procedure

HINT:

Malfunctioning areas can be found by performing the ACTIVE TEST / A/F CONTROL operation. The A/F CONTROL operation can determine if the A/F sensor, heated oxygen sensor or other potential trouble area are malfunctioning or not.

Perform the ACTIVE TEST A/F CONTROL operation.

HINT:

The A/F CONTROL operation lowers the injection volume 12.5% or increases the injection volume 25%.

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch ON (IG).
Put the engine in inspection mode (see PRECAUTION ).
Warm up the engine by running the engine at 2,500 rpm, depressing the accelerator pedal more than 60% for approximately 90 seconds.
Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / A/F CONTROL.
Perform the A/F CONTROL operation with the engine in an idle condition (press the right or left button).

Result:

A/F sensor reacts in accordance with increase and decrease of injection volume:

+25% --> rich output: Less than 3.0 V

-12.5% --> lean output: More than 3.35 V

Heated oxygen sensor reacts in accordance with increase and decrease of injection volume:

+25% --> rich output: More than 0.55 V

-12.5% --> lean output: Less than 0.4 V

NOTE: The A/F sensor output has a few seconds of delay and the heated oxygen sensor output has about 20 seconds of delay at maximum.

The following A/F CONTROL procedure enables the technician to check and graph the voltage output of both A/F sensor and heated oxygen sensor.

To display the graph, enter ACTIVE TEST/ A/F CONTROL/USER DATA, select "AFS B1S1 and O2S B1S2" by pressing the "YES" button followed by the "ENTER" button and then the "F4" button.

HINT:

DTC P2A00 may be also detected, when the air-fuel ratio stays RICH or LEAN.
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
A high A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a RICH air-fuel mixture. Check the conditions that would cause the engine to run with the RICH air-fuel mixture.
A low A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a LEAN air-fuel mixture. Check the conditions that would cause the engine to run with the LEAN air-fuel mixture.

CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO A/F SENSOR DTC)

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch ON (IG).
Turn the tester ON.
Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.

Read DTCs.

READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER (OUTPUT VOLTAGE OF A/F SENSOR)
1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC 3.
2. Put the engine in inspection mode (see PRECAUTION ).
3. Warm up the A/F sensors (bank 1 sensor 1) by running the engine at 2,500 rpm with the accelerator pedal depressed more than 60 % for approximately 90 seconds.
4. Read A/F sensor voltage output on the intelligent tester.
5. Enter the following menus: ENHANCED OBD II / SNAPSHOT / MANUAL SNAPSHOT / USER DATA.
6. Select "AFS B1 S1/ENGINE SPD" and press button "YES".
7. Monitor the A/F sensor voltage carefully.
8. Check the A/F sensor voltage output under the following conditions:
  1. Put the engine in inspection mode and allow the engine to idle for 30 seconds.
  2. Put the engine in inspection mode and running the engine at 2,500 rpm with the accelerator pedal depressed more than 60% (where engine RPM is not suddenly changed).
  3. Deactivate the inspection mode and drive the vehicle with shift position "B" range.
  4. Accelerate the vehicle to 70 km/h (44 mph) and quickly release the accelerator pedal so that the throttle valve is fully closed.
    CAUTION:
    Strictly observe of posted speed limits, traffic laws, and road conditions when performing these drive patterns.
    
    Do not drive the vehicle without deactivating inspection mode, otherwise damaging the transaxle may result.
    OK : Condition (1) and (2)
    
    Voltage changes in the vicinity of 3.3 V (between approximately 3.1 to 3.5 V) as shown in the illustration.
    
    Condition (4)
    
    A/F sensor voltage increases to 3.8 V or more during engine deceleration (when fuel cut) as shown in the illustration.

    HINT:
    - Whenever the output voltage of the A/F sensor remains at approximately 3.3 V (see diagram Malfunction Condition) under any condition as well as the above conditions, the A/F sensor may have an open-circuit. (This will happen also when the A/F sensor heater has an open-circuit.)
    - Whenever the output voltage of the A/F sensor remains at a certain value of approximately 3.8 V or more, or 2.8 V or less (see diagram Malfunction Condition) under any condition as well as the above conditions, the A/F sensor may have a short-circuit.
    - The ECM will stop fuel injection (fuel cut) during engine deceleration. This will cause a LEAN condition and should result in a momentary increase in A/F sensor voltage output.
    - The ECM must establish a closed throttle position learned value to perform fuel cut. If the battery terminal was reconnected, the vehicle must be driven over 10 mph to allow the ECM to learn the closed throttle position.
    - When the vehicle is driven: The output voltage of the A/F sensor may be below 2.8 V during fuel enrichment. For the vehicle, this translates to a sudden increase in speed with the accelerator pedal fully depressed when trying to overtake another vehicle. The A/F sensor is functioning normally.
    - The A/F sensor is a current output element, and therefore the current is converted into voltage inside the ECM. If measuring voltage at connectors of A/F sensor or ECM, you will observe a constant voltage.
