Details On DTCs

Description

HO2S circuit no activity detected

Detection condition
Determination conditions
• With the estimated temperature of the HO2S element exceeding the specified value, a condition in which the HO2S signal voltage is less than the specified value continues for the specified period.
Preconditions
• Battery voltage: above 11 V *1
• The following DTCs are not detected:
― HO2S: P0137:00 and P0138:00
― ECT sensor No.1: P0117:00 and P0118:00
― MAF sensor: P0100:00, P0101:00 and U060F:00
*1: Standard can be verified by displaying PIDs using M-MDS
Drive cycle
• 2
Self test type
• CMDTC self test
Sensor used
• HO2S
Fail-safe function
• Not applicable
Vehicle status when DTCs are output
• Not applicable
Possible cause
• HO2S signal line error
― HO2S connector or terminals malfunction
― PCM connector or terminals malfunction
― Short to ground in HO2S signal circuit
― Open circuit in HO2S signal circuit
• HO2S incorrect installation
• HO2S malfunction
• Exhaust gas leakage from exhaust system (between A/F sensor and HO2S)
• Insufficient engine compression
• HO2S heater malfunction
• PCM malfunction



Function Explanation (DTC Detection Outline)

• If the output voltage of the HO2S continues to be low for the specified time or more even though the estimated temperature of the HO2S element after the engine is started exceeds the specified value, the PCM determines that the HO2S is not activating, and stores a DTC. The malfunction determination time varies depending on the intake air amount.



Repeatability Verification Procedure

1. Warm up the engine to allow the engine coolant temperature to reach 80 °C {176 °F} or more.
2. Start the engine and leave it idling for 1 min.

Note
• Match the engine coolant temperature in the recorded freeze frame data/snapshot data, the vehicle speed, and engine speed values to the best extent possible while driving the vehicle.
3. Try to reproduce the malfunction by driving the vehicle for 5 min based on the values in the freeze frame data/snapshot data.

No
Go to the next step.
2
PURPOSE: RECORD VEHICLE STATUS WHEN DTC WAS DETECTED TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION
• Record the freeze frame data/snapshot data and diagnostic monitoring test results (A/F sensor, HO2S related).

Note
• Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture function of the PC.
Go to the next step.
3
PURPOSE: VERIFY CONNECTOR CONNECTIONS
• Start the engine.
• Access the following PIDs using the M-MDS: (See PID/DATA MONITOR INSPECTION.)
― HO2S_HEAT
― HO2S_OUT_VOLT
• When the following parts are shaken, does the PID value include a PID item which has changed?
― HO2S
― PCM
Yes
Repair or replace the applicable connector parts.
Go to Troubleshooting Diagnostic Procedure to perform the repair completion verification.
No
Go to the next step.
4
PURPOSE: VERIFICATION IF MALFUNCTION CAUSED BY HO2S
• Start the engine and idle it.
• Access the HO2S_OUT_VOLT PID using the M-MDS. (See PID/DATA MONITOR INSPECTION.)
• Is the HO2S_OUT_VOLT PID value normal? (See PID/DATA MONITOR TABLE [PCM (SKYACTIV-G (US))].)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to Troubleshooting Diagnostic Procedure to perform the procedure from Step 1.
5
PURPOSE: VERIFICATION IF MALFUNCTION CAUSED BY HO2S HEATER
• Start the engine and idle it.
• Access the HO2S_HEAT PID using the M-MDS. (See PID/DATA MONITOR INSPECTION.)
• Is the HO2S_HEAT PID value normal? (See PID/DATA MONITOR TABLE [PCM (SKYACTIV-G (US))].)
Yes
Go to Troubleshooting Diagnostic Procedure to perform the procedure from Step 1.
No
Go to Troubleshooting Diagnostic Procedure to perform the procedure from Step 9.



Troubleshooting Diagnostic Procedure

Intention of troubleshooting procedure
• Step 1—4
― Perform an inspection of the HO2S signal line-related parts.
• Step 5—6
― Verify the condition of the HO2S installation and perform a unit inspection.
• Step 7
― Perform an exhaust system parts inspection.
• Step 8
― Perform an inspection of the engine compression.
• Step 9
― Perform an inspection of the HO2S heater.
• Repair completion verification
― Verify that the primary malfunction is resolved and there are no other malfunctions.
