Is there continuity?
YES -
Go to step 17.
NO -
Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (C6 (C8)*) and A/F sensor (Sensor 1), then go to step 26.
17. Check for continuity between A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 6P connector terminal No. 1 and PGM-FI subrelay 4P connector terminal No. 2.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Go to step 18.
NO -
Repair open in the wire between A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the PGM-FI subrelay, then go to step 26.
18. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector A (49P).
19. Check for continuity between PGM-FI subrelay 4P connector terminal No. 3 and ECM/PCM connector terminal A40.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Go to step 32.
NO -
Repair open in the wire between the PGM-FI subrelay, and the ECM/PCM (A40), then go to step 26.
20. Remove the PGM-FI subrelay (A) from the under-hood fuse/relay box.
21. Disconnect the front and rear A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 6P connectors.
22. Disconnect the front and rear secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) 4P connectors.
23. Disconnect the EVAP canister vent shut valve 2P connector.
24. Check for continuity between A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 6P connector terminal No. 1 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Repair short in the wire between the PGM-FI subrelay and A/F sensor (Sensor 1), then go to step 26.
NO -
Check the under-hood fuse/relay box, and replace it if needed Under-Hood Fuse/Relay Box Removal and Installation. Also replace the No. 14 FI SUB (15 A) fuse, then go to step 26.
25. Replace A/F sensor (Sensor 1) A/F Sensor Replacement.
26. Reconnect all connectors.
27. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
28. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
29. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure ECM/PCM Idle Learn Procedure.
30. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0135 and/or P0155* indicated?
YES -
Check for poor connections or loose terminals at A/F sensor (Sensor 1), the PGM-FI subrelay, and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1.
NO -
Go to step 31.
31. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0135 and/or P0155* in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES -
Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 30, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.�
NO -
If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at A/F sensor(Sensor 1), the PGM-FI subrelay, and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
32. Reconnect all connectors.
33. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software ECM/PCM Update, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM.
34. Start the engine, and let it idle.
35. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0135 and/or P0155* indicated?
YES -
Check for poor connections or loose terminals at A/F sensor (Sensor 1), the PGM-FI subrelay, and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then go to step 34. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1.
NO -
Go to step 36.
36. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0135 and/or P0155* in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES -
If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM Service and Repair. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 35, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.�
NO -
If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at A/F sensor(Sensor 1), the PGM-FI subrelay, and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then go to step 34. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
