Description

Refer to DTC P2195.

HINT:

1. When either of these DTCs is set, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. The ECM turns off the air fuel ratio sensor heater in fail-safe mode. Fail-safe mode continues until the power switch is turned off.
2. Although the DTC titles say the oxygen sensor, these DTCs relate to the air fuel ratio sensor.
3. Sensor 1 refers to the sensor mounted in front of the Three-way catalytic converter and located near the engine assembly.
4. The ECM uses pulse width modulation to adjust the current through the heater. The air fuel ratio sensor heater circuit uses a relay on the +B side of the circuit.
   

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
P0031	Air fuel ratio sensor heater current is below 0.8 A, even when the air fuel ratio sensor heater duty cycle is 10% or more (1 trip detection logic).	Open in air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) heater circuit Air fuel ratio sensor heater (sensor 1) ECM
P0032	An air fuel ratio sensor heater current reaches the high limit (Hybrid IC high current limiter port "Fail") (1 trip detection logic).	Short in air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) heater circuit Air fuel ratio sensor heater (sensor 1) ECM
P101D	The heater current is higher than the specified value while the heater is not operating (1 trip detection logic).	ECM

Monitor description

The ECM uses information from the air fuel ratio sensor to regulate the air fuel ratio and keep it close to the stoichiometric level. This maximizes the ability of the three-way catalytic converter to purify the exhaust gases.
The air fuel ratio sensor detects oxygen levels in the exhaust gas and transmits the information to the ECM. The inner surface of the sensor element is exposed to the outside air. The outer surface of the sensor element is exposed to the exhaust gas. The sensor element is made of platinum coated zirconia and includes an integrated heating element.
The zirconia element generates a small voltage when there is a large difference in the oxygen concentrations between the exhaust gas and outside air. The platinum coating amplifies this voltage generation.
The air fuel ratio sensor is more efficient when heated. When the exhaust gas temperature is low, the sensor cannot generate useful voltage signals without supplementary heating. The ECM regulates the supplementary heating using a duty-cycle approach to adjust the average current in the sensor heater element. If the heater current is outside the normal range, the signal transmitted by the air fuel ratio sensor becomes inaccurate, as a result, the ECM is unable to regulate air fuel ratio properly.
When the current in the air fuel ratio sensor heater is outside the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor heater and sets a DTC.

Confirmation driving pattern

1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
2. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the tester on.
3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).
4. Turn the power switch off and wait for 30 seconds.
5. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the tester on [A].
6. Put the engine in inspection mode (maintenance mode) .
7. Start the engine and idle it for 5 minutes or more [B].
8. With the vehicle stationary, depress the accelerator pedal and maintain an engine speed of 2500 rpm for 1 minute [C].
9. Idle the engine for 5 minutes or more [D].
10. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.
11. Read the DTC [E].

    HINT:

    1. If a DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    2. If a DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
12. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
13. Input the DTC: P0031, P0032 or P101D.
14. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Tester Display	Description
    NORMAL	DTC judgment completed System normal
    ABNORMAL	DTC judgment completed System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE	DTC judgment not completed Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions
    UNKNOWN	Unable to perform DTC judgment Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit

    HINT:

    1. If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
    2. If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    3. If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or UNKNOWN, perform steps [B] through [E] again.

Inspection procedure

NOTICE:

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

HINT:

1. Refer to "Data List / Active Test" [A/F Heater Duty #1] .
2. Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. 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.
3. Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closest to the engine assembly.
4. Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farthest away from the engine assembly.
5. Change the fuel injection volume using the Control the Injection Volume function provided in the Active Test and monitor the air fuel ratio sensor output voltage. If the sensor output voltage does not change (almost no reaction) while performing the Active Test, the sensor may be malfunctioning.
