DESCRIPTION
- HINT:
- Sensor 2 refers to the sensor mounted behind the three-way catalytic converter and located far from the engine assembly.
The heated oxygen sensor is located behind the three-way catalytic converter, and detects the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas. Since the sensor is integrated with the heater that heats the sensing portion, it is possible to detect the oxygen concentration even when the intake air volume is low (the exhaust gas temperature is low).
When the air fuel ratio becomes lean, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas is rich. The heated oxygen sensor informs the ECM that the post-three way catalytic converter air fuel ratio is lean (low voltage, i.e. below 0.45 V).
Conversely, when the air fuel ratio is richer than the stoichiometric air fuel level, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas becomes lean. The heated oxygen sensor informs the ECM that the post-three way catalytic converter air fuel ratio is rich (high voltage, i.e. higher than 0.45 V). The heated oxygen sensor has the property of changing its output voltage drastically when the air fuel ratio is close to the stoichiometric level.
The ECM uses the supplementary information from the heated oxygen sensor to determine whether the air fuel ratio after the three-way catalytic converter is rich or lean, and adjusts the fuel injection time accordingly. Thus, if the heated oxygen sensor is working improperly due to internal malfunctions, the ECM is unable to compensate for deviations in the primary air fuel ratio control.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
- Active Air-fuel Ratio Control
The ECM usually performs air-fuel ratio feedback control so that the air fuel ratio sensor output indicates a near stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. This vehicle includes active air-fuel ratio control in addition to regular air-fuel ratio control. The ECM performs active air-fuel ratio control to detect any deterioration in the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) and heated oxygen sensor malfunctions (refer to the diagram below).
Active air-fuel ratio control is performed for approximately 15 to 20 seconds while driving with a warm engine. During active air-fuel ratio control, the air-fuel ratio is forcibly regulated to become lean or rich by the ECM. If the ECM detects a malfunction, a DTC is stored.
- Abnormal Voltage Output of Heated Oxygen Sensor (DTC P0136 and P0156)
While the ECM is performing active air-fuel ratio control, the air-fuel ratio is forcibly regulated to become rich or lean. If the sensor is not functioning properly, the voltage output variation is small. For example, when the heated oxygen sensor voltage does not decrease to below 0.21 V and does not increase to higher than 0.66 V during active air-fuel ratio control, the ECM determines that the sensor voltage output is abnormal and stores DTC P0136 or P0156.
- Open or Short in Heated Oxygen Sensor Circuit (DTC P0137 and P0157 or P0138 and P0158)
During active air-fuel ratio control, the ECM calculates the Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC)* of the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) by forcibly regulating the air-fuel ratio to become rich or lean. If the heated oxygen sensor has an open or short, or the voltage output of the sensor decreases significantly, the Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC) is indicated as having an extraordinarily high value. Even if the ECM attempts to continue regulating the air-fuel ratio to become rich or lean, the heated oxygen sensor output does not change.
While performing active air-fuel ratio control, when the target air-fuel ratio is rich and the heated oxygen sensor voltage output is 0.21 V or less (lean), the ECM interprets this as an abnormally low sensor output voltage and stores DTC P0137 or P0157. When the target air-fuel ratio is lean and the voltage output is 0.66 V or more (rich) during active air-fuel ratio control, the ECM determines that the sensor voltage output is abnormally high and stores DTC P0138 or P0158.
*: The Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) has the capability to store oxygen. The Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC) and the emissions purification capacity of the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) are mutually related. The ECM determines whether the catalyst has deteriorated based on the calculated Oxygen Storage Capacity (OSC) value (Click here).
