DTC SET CONDITIONS

Logic Flow Chart

.

Check Conditions

• Engine coolant temperature is higher than 60°C 

(140

°F).

• Engine speed is between 1,200 and 3,000 r/min.

• Volumetric efficiency is between 25 and 60 per-

cent.

• Under the closed loop air/fuel control.

• The accelerator pedal is open.

• Short-term fuel trim is at between −25 and +25 

percent.

• More than 2 seconds have elapsed after the 

above mentioned conditions have been met.

• The PCM monitors for this condition for 7 cycles 

of 10 seconds each during the drive cycle.

Judgment Criteria

• The cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) 

sends "lean" and "rich" signals alternately 9 times 
or less for 10 seconds. <Federal>

or

• The cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) 

sends "lean" and "rich" signals alternately 11 
times or less for 10 seconds. <California>

NOTE: If the sensor switching frequency is lower 
than the Judgment Criteria due to the MUT-III OBD-II 
test Mode 

 H02S Test Results, it is assumed that 

the heated oxygen sensor has deteriorated. If it is 
higher, it is assumed that the harness is damaged or 
has a short circuit.
If the heated oxygen sensor signal voltage has not 
changed even once (lean/rich) after the DTC was 
erased, the sensor switch time will display as 0 sec-
onds.

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

• Cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) deteri-

orated.

• Connector damage.

• PCM failed.

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 11: 
Cylinder 2, 3 Heated Oxygen Sensor (front).

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 

11, Cylinder 2, 3 Heated Oxygen Sensor (front).

(4) Warm up the engine, 2,500 r/min.

• Output voltage repeats 0.4 volt or less and 0.6 − 1.0 volt 

10 times or more within 10 seconds.

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

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

P.00-6

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

13A-331

STEP 2. Check the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor 
(front).

(1) Disconnect the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) 

connector B-36 and connect test harness special tool 
MB991316 to the connector on the cylinder 2, 3 heated 
oxygen sensor (front) side.

(2) Warm up the engine until engine coolant temperature 

reaches 80

°C (176°F) or higher.

(3) Perform a racing for 5 minutes or more with the engine 

speed of 4,500 r/min.

(4) Connect a digital voltage meter between terminal No. 2 

(black clip) and terminal No. 4 (white clip).

(5) While repeatedly revving the engine, measure the cylinder 

2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) output voltage.

Standard value: 0.6 

 1.0 volt

CAUTION

• Be very careful when connecting the jumper wires; 

incorrect connection can damage the heated oxygen 
sensor (front).

• Be careful the heater is broken when voltage of beyond 

8 volts is applied to the heated oxygen sensor (front) 
heater.
NOTE: If the sufficiently high temperature [of approximate 
400

°

C (752

°

F) or more] is not reached although the heated 

oxygen sensor (front) is normal, the output voltage would be 
possibly low although the rich air/fuel ratio. Therefore, if the 
output voltage is low, use a jumper wire to connect the ter-
minal No. 1 (red clip) and the terminal No. 3 (blue clip) of 
the heated oxygen sensor (front) with the positive terminal 
and the negative terminal of 8 volts power supply respec-
tively, then check again.

Q: Is the measured voltage between 0.6 and 1.0 volt?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Replace the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor 

(front). Then go to Step 4.

STEP 3. Check harness connector B-36 at cylinder 2, 3 
heated oxygen sensor (front) and harness connector B-21, 
B-22 at PCM for damage.

Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then go to Step 4.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 4.
