P0132

DTC P0132

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) are used for fuel control and post catalyst monitoring. Each HO2S compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content in the exhaust stream. The HO2S must reach operating temperature to provide an accurate voltage signal. Heating elements inside the HO2S minimize the time required for the sensors to reach operating temperature. The engine control module (ECM) supplies the HO2S with a reference, or bias, voltage of about 450 mV. When the engine is first started the ECM operates in Open Loop, ignoring the HO2S voltage signal. Once the HO2S reaches operating temperature and Closed Loop is achieved, the HO2S generates a voltage within a range of 0-1,000 mV that fluctuates above and below bias voltage. High HO2S voltage indicates a rich exhaust stream, and low HO2S voltage indicates a lean exhaust stream. If the ECM detects that HO2S 1 voltage stays above a specified value, DTC P0132 will set.

DTC DESCRIPTOR
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0132 Circuit High Voltage Sensor 1

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
- DTCs P0106, P0107, P0108, P0112, P0113, P0117, P0118, P0122, P0123, P0125, P0171, P0172, P0300, P0336, P0340, P0341, P0455, P0500 P0601, P0602, P0606, P0641, P0722, P0723 are not set.
- The Loop Status parameter is closed.
- The Air Fuel Ratio parameter is between 14.5:1 and 14.8:1.
- The transmission is in Drive with automatic transmission.
- DTC P0132 runs continuously when the above conditions are met.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC

Rich Test
- The ECM detects that the HO2S 1 voltage parameter is more than 786 mV.
- DTC P0132 sets during the rich test within 100 seconds when the above condition is met.

Decel Fuel Cutoff Test
- The ECM detects that the HO2S 1 voltage parameter is more than 586 mV.
- DTC P0132 sets during the decel fuel cutoff test within 10 seconds when the above condition is met.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records.
- The control module commands the Loop Status open.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
