Loop Status

OPEN LOOP/CLOSE LOOP: The loop status indicates when the VCM is controlling fuel delivery which is calculated using the HO2S bank 1 and 2 inputs. This is called closed loop fuel control. During open loop, the VCM ignores the HO2S input and bases fuel delivery upon TP, engine coolant, and MAF sensor input.
