MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-225

STEP 4. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Procedure 4 −

Heated Oxygen Sensor Monitor

P.13A-5

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0133 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.

DTC P0134: Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor No Activity Detected (sensor 1)

CAUTION

If DTC P0134 has been set, TCL related DTC
U1120 is also set. After P0134 has been diag-
nosed, don't forget to erase DTC U1120.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The PCM effects air/fuel ratio feedback control in

accordance with the signals from the cylinder 1, 4
heated oxygen sensor (front).

• If the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front)

has deteriorated, corrections will be made by the
cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (rear).

• DTC P0134 becomes stored in memory if a fail-

ure is detected in the above air/fuel ratio feed-
back control system.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front) output

voltage does not cross 0.5 volt within specified
period.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Logic Flow Chart

Check Conditions

• 20 seconds or more have passed since the

engine starting sequence was completed.

• Engine coolant temperature is higher than 76°C

(169

°F).

• Engine speed is higher than 1,200 r/min.

• Volumetric efficiency is higher than 30 percent.

• Throttle position sensor output voltage is lower

than 4 volts.

• Except while fuel is being shut off.

• Monitoring time: 30 seconds.

Judgment Criteria

• Cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front) output

voltage does not get across 0.5 volt within about
30 seconds.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this code to be set are: )

• Cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front) deteri-

orated.

• Harness damage in cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen

sensor (front) output line.

• Cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (rear) deteri-

orated.
NOTE: When the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen
sensor (front) begins to deteriorate, the heated
oxygen sensor output voltage will deviate from
the voltage when the sensor was new (normally
0.5 volt at stoichiometric ratio). This deviation will
be corrected by the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen
sensor (rear).

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-227

If the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (rear)
responds poorly because it has deteriorated, it
will improperly correct the cylinder 1, 4 heated
oxygen sensor (front). Thus, even when closed
loop control is being effected, the fluctuation of
the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front)
output voltage decreases, without intersecting
with 0.5 volt. As a result, there is a possibility of
DTC P0134 becoming registered.

• Open circuit in cylinder 1, 4 injector.

• Harness damage in cylinder 1, 4 injector circuit.

• Connector damage.

• PCM failed.

• Exhaust leak.

• Air drawn in from gaps in gasket, seals, etc.

• Incorrect fuel pressure.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

• MB991316: Test Harness

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 69:
Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

69, Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear).

• Warming up the engine. When the engine is revved, the

output voltage should repeat 0 volt and 0.6 to 1.0 volt
alternately.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Refer to DTC P0136
