DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0136 (HILUX_TGN26 RM000000WBY0F3X_01.html).- HINT:
- Sensor 2 refers to the sensor mounted behind the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) and located far from the engine assembly.
- When any of these DTCs is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. The ECM turns off the heated oxygen sensor heater in fail-safe mode. The ECM continues operating in fail-safe mode until the ignition switch is turned off.
- The ECM provides a pulse width modulated control circuit to adjust the current through the heater. The heated oxygen sensor heater circuit uses a relay on the +B side of the circuit.
DTC No.

- Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closest to the engine assembly.
- Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farthest away from the engine assembly.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The sensing portion of the heated oxygen sensor has a zirconia element which is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas. If the zirconia element is at the appropriate temperature and the difference between the oxygen concentrations surrounding the inside and outside surfaces of the sensor is large, the zirconia element generates voltage signals. In order to increase the oxygen concentration detecting capacity of the zirconia element, the ECM supplements the heat from the exhaust with heat from a heating element inside the sensor.- Heated oxygen sensor heater range check (P0037, P0038 and P102D):
- The ECM monitors the current applied to the heated oxygen sensor heater to check the heater for malfunctions.
If the heater current is outside the normal range, the signal transmitted by the heated oxygen sensor becomes inaccurate. When the current in the heated oxygen sensor heater is outside the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor heater and stores a DTC.
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the intelligent tester on.
- Clear DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation) [A].
- Start the engine and idle it for 5 minutes or more [B].
- With the vehicle stationary, depress the accelerator pedal and maintain an engine speed of 3000 rpm for 1 minute [C].
- Idle the engine for 5 minutes or more [D].
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
- Input the DTC: P0037, P0038 or P102D.
- Check the DTC judgment result [E].
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
|
N/A
| - Unable to perform DTC judgment
- Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit
|
- If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform steps [B] through [E] again.
- If the test result is N/A, enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Code / Pending.
- Read Pending DTCs.
- HINT:
- If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If the test result is INCOMPLETE or N/A and no pending DTC is output, refer to the appropriate section (HILUX_TGN26 RM000000PDK0T7X.html).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- Inspect the fuses of circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
- HINT:
- Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, 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.
- Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closest to the engine assembly.
- Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farthest away from the engine assembly.
