1Vd-Ftv Engine Control. Dtc P0031 Oxygen (A/F) Sensor Heater Control Circuit Low (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

For more information on the air fuel ratio sensor and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), refer to the following procedures (Click here).
These DTCs are related to the air fuel ratio sensor, although the titles say oxygen sensor.

The air fuel ratio sensor outputs a voltage* that is proportional to the air-fuel ratio. The air fuel ratio sensor output voltage is used to control the A/F mixture.
The air fuel ratio sensor is located after the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) catalytic converter. This sensor has been developed based on the structure and technology of the air fuel ratio sensor that is used for gasoline engines. The cover for the sensor electrode has been modified to suit its application in a diesel engine. This change allows the sensor to function effectively in this DPF type diesel engine, and it also avoids problems with sensor temperature and particulate matter (PM).
In order to reduce PM, the ECM adjusts the air-fuel ratio to a value slightly richer than that which would otherwise be used (note that this mixture is still leaner than the stoichiometric air fuel ratio). The ECM controls these adjustments on signals from the air fuel ratio sensor.
When the ECM performs PM forced regeneration (cleaning) by adding fuel using the exhaust fuel addition injector assembly, the air fuel ratio sensor feedback is used to ensure that an appropriate air fuel ratio is maintained.
*: This voltage change occurs only inside the ECM. It is not possible to measure this voltage at the sensor. The GTS can be used to monitor this voltage.

P0031 Oxygen (A/F) Sensor Heater Control Circuit Low (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

HINT:

The ECM provides a pulse width modulated control circuit to adjust current through the heater. The air fuel ratio sensor heater circuit uses a relay on the +B side of the circuit.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The inner surface of the air fuel ratio sensor element is exposed to outside air. The outer surface of the sensor element is exposed to exhaust gases. 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 of the exhaust and the outside air. The platinum coating amplifies the voltage generation. When heated, the sensor becomes very efficient. If the temperature of the exhaust is low, without supplemental heating, the sensor will not generate useful voltage signals. The ECM controls the heating by using a duty-cycle to regulate the average current in the heater element. If the heater current is out of the normal range, the output signals of the sensor are inaccurate and the ECM cannot regulate the air-fuel ratio properly. When the heater current is out of the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction and stores a DTC.
