Diagnostic Fault Information





Typical Scan Tool Data






Circuit/System Description

The heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) are used for fuel control and catalyst monitoring. Each HO2S compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content of the exhaust stream. When the engine is started, the engine control module (ECM) operates in an open loop mode, ignoring the HO2S signal voltage while calculating the air to fuel ratio. While the engine runs, the HO2S heats up and begins to generate a voltage within a range of 0-1 275 mV. Once sufficient HO2S voltage fluctuation is observed by the ECM, closed loop is entered. The ECM uses the HO2S voltage to determine the air to fuel ratio. An HO2S voltage that increases toward 1 000 mV indicates a rich fuel mixture. An HO2S voltage that decreases toward 0 mV indicates a lean fuel mixture.

The heating elements inside each HO2S heat the sensor to bring the sensor up to operating conditions faster. This allows the system to enter closed loop earlier and the control module to calculate the air to fuel ratio sooner.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Clear the DTCs with a scan tool.

1. Verify none of the following conditions exist.

* Lean or rich fuel injectors. Refer to Fuel Injector Diagnosis (Fuel Injector Diagnosis).
* Water intrusion in the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 or B52B Heated Oxygen Sensor 2 harness connector
* Low or high fuel system pressure. Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis (Fuel System Diagnosis).
* Fuel that is contaminated. Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis).

2. If all conditions test normal, test or replace the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 or B52B Heated Oxygen Sensor 2.

P0134 00, P2A00 00
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the appropriate B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 or B52B Heated Oxygen Sensor 2.
2. Ignition ON, observe the appropriate scan tool HO2S voltage parameter. The parameter should display 1.27 V.

If less than the specified range, test the high and low signal circuits for a short to ground. If both signal circuit test normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

3. Ignition ON, test for 2.5-3.0 V between the high signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.

If less than the specified range, test the high signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
If greater than the specified range, test the high signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

Note: The low signal circuit is tied to a pull-up circuit within the ECM. A voltage of 0.90-1.10 V on the low signal circuit is normal.

4. Ignition OFF, connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the high signal circuit terminal 2 and the low signal circuit terminal 4.
5. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool appropriate HO2S parameter displays 0.0 V.

If greater than the specified range, test the low signal circuit for an open/high resistance or for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
