MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-212

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Power is supplied from the MFI relay (terminal 

No. 1) to the right bank heated oxygen sensor 
(front) heater.

• The PCM (terminal No. 25

) controls continuity to the right bank heated oxy-
gen sensor (front) heater by turning the power 
transistor in the PCM "ON" and "OFF".

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The PCM checks whether the heater current is 

within a specified range when the heater is ener-
gized.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Right bank heated oxygen sensor heater (front) cur-

rent is out of specified range when engine coolant 
temperature is over 20

°C (68°F).

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

Logic Flow Chart

.

Check Conditions

• 60 seconds have elapsed from the start of the 

previous monitoring.

• Engine coolant temperature is higher than 20°C 

(68

°F).

• While the right bank heated oxygen sensor (front) 

heater is on.

• Battery positive voltage is at between 11 and 16.5 

volts.

Judgment Criteria

• The right bank heated oxygen sensor (front) 

heater current has continued to be lower than 
0.16 ampere or higher than 7.5 ampere for 4 sec-
onds.

.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN

.

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

• Right bank heated oxygen sensor (front) heater 

deteriorated.

• Open or shorted right bank heated oxygen sen-

sor (front) heater circuit or harness damage.

• Connector damage.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MD998464: Test Harness

STEP 1. Check harness connector B-07 at the right bank 
heated oxygen sensor (front) for damage.

Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.
