P0139
DTC P0139
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HO2S(B1/S2) is in the rear side of Catalytic Converter to check the proper operation of catalyst. Oxygen density after the catalytic converter has to be within specific range (around 0.5 V when there is no acceleration and deceleration). If the oxygen density changes in accordance with HO2S(B1/S1), it means the poor performance of catalytic converter.
DTC DESCRIPTION
If the sensor output is over 0.15 V under enable conditions, ECM/PCM sets DTC P0139.(This DTC might be caused by the malfunction of Heater circuit, so, check the heater circuit first.)

Signal Waveform And Data:
MONITOR SCANTOOL DATA
1. Connect scantool to DLC (Data Link Cable).
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
3. Monitor "HO2S(B1S2)" parameter on scantool.
4. Is the "HO2S(B1S2)" parameter displayed correctly?
YES - Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the sensor's and/or ECM's connector or was repaired and ECM/PCM memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, ending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO - Go to "System Inspection" procedure.
NOTE: This DTC might be caused by the malfunction of Heater circuit, so, check the heater circuit first.
SYSTEM INSPECTION
1. Check leakage or clog of air.
a. Check contamination, clog and installation of gasket
- Any damage or installation of throttle body gasket.
- Any damage or installation of gasket between intake manifold and surge tank.
- Clog or contamination of intake manifold and injector by foreign materials
- Contamination between surge tank and PCSV or stuck open condition of PCSV.
- Any damage or contamination of HO2S(B1/S2) by foreign materials.
b. Has a problem been found?
YES - Go to " Check Fuel Line" as follows.
NO - Repair or replace as necessary and then, go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
2. Check Fuel Line.
a. Check fuel lines for contamination, restriction, improper installation, or damage.
- Connection for each connectors in Fuel Line.
- Damage, interference and installation of vacuum hose connected to Fuel Line.
- Bend, Leakage and squeeze of pipe in Fuel Line.
b. Has a problem been found?
YES - Go to "Check Fuel Pressure" as follows.
NO - Repair or replace as necessary and then, go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
3. Check Fuel Pressure.
a. IG "OFF".
b. Disconnect fuel pump relay from junction box in passenger compartment.
c. Start engine and await until engine is off and then, IG "OFF".
d. Connect fuel pump relay again.
e. Connect fuel pressure gauge on the fuel filter with fuel pressure gauge adaptor.
f. Start engine again and measure fuel pressure.
Specification : Approx. 3.5 kgf/sq.cm
g. Is the fuel pressure normal?
YES - Go to "Component Inspection" procedure.
NO
- Check any damage of fuel return hose or pipe.
- Check for improper fuel pressure regulator operation.
- Repair or replace as necessary and then, go to 'Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
COMPONENT INSPECTION
1. Check PCV.
a. IG "OFF"
b. Disconnect PCV.
c. Check that PCV is properly operating.
d. Is the PCV O.K?
YES - Go to "Check PCSV" as follows.
NO
- Substitute with a known - good PCV and check for proper operation.
- If the problem is corrected, replace PCV and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
2. Check the PCSV.
a. Ignition "OFF".
b. Disconnect PCSV and Vacuum Hose.
c. Apply vacuum on PCSV with Hand Vacuum Gauge.
d. Is the PCSV keeping the Vacuum?
YES - Go to "Check Injector" as below.
NO - Substitute with a known - good PCSV and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace PCSV and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
3. Check Injector.
a. Ignition "OFF"
b. Remove Injector.
c. Check Leakage and clog on Injector.
d. Measure resistance terminal 1 and 2 of Injector connector(Component side).
Specification :
Temperature Resistance [ohms]
20 °C (68 °F) 13.8 - 15.2 ohms
e. Is the measured resistance within specifications?
YES - Go to "Check sensors related to Fuel Trim " as below.
NO - Substitute with a known - good Injector and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace Injector and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
4. Check Sensors related to Fuel Trim.
a. Check the Input Voltage of Sensors related to Fuel Trim(MAPS, TPS, ECTS, PCSV, Injector, and etc.) - Refer to Trouble Shooting Guide -
b. Are the sensors related to Fuel Trim O.K?
YES - Go to "Check ECM/PCM" as below.
NO - Repair as necessary and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
5. Check ECM/PCM.
a. IG "OFF" and disconnect B1S2 connector.
b. Connect scantool and Key "ON".
c. Select simulation function on scantool.
d. Simulate voltage at terminal 2 of HO2S(B1S2) sensor signal connector.
e. Is the HO2S(B1/S2) signal value changed according to simulation voltage ?
YES - Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination,deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
NO
- Substitute with a known - good ECM/PCM and check for proper operation.
- If the problem is corrected, replace ECM/PCM and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR
After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.
1. Connect scan tool and select "Diagnostic Trouble Codes(DTCs)" mode.
2. Clear the DTCs and Operate the vehicle within DTC Enable conditions in General information.
3. Are any DTCs present ?
YES - Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.
NO - System is performing to specification at this time.
