2AZ-FXE ENGINE CONTROL: SFI SYSTEM: P2237-P2239, P2252, P2253: Oxygen (A/F) Sensor Pumping Current Circuit / Open (Bank 1 Sensor 1)


DESCRIPTION

Refer to DTC P2195 P2195.

HINT
- Although the DTC titles say oxygen sensor, these DTCs relate to the air fuel ratio sensor.
- Bank 1 sensor 1 refers to the sensor mounted in front of the three-way catalytic converter and located near the engine assembly.





MONITOR DESCRIPTION

These DTCs are output when there is an open or short in the air fuel ratio sensor circuit, or if air fuel ratio sensor output drops. To detect these problems, the voltage of the air fuel ratio sensor is monitored when turning the power switch on (IG), and the admittance (admittance is an electrical term that indicates the ease of flow of current) is checked while driving. If the voltage of the air fuel ratio sensor is between 0.6 V and 4.5 V, it is considered normal. If the voltage is out of the specified range, or the admittance is less than the standard value, the hybrid vehicle control ECU will determine that there is a malfunction in the air fuel ratio sensor. If the same malfunction is detected in next driving cycle, the MIL will be illuminated and a DTC will be stored.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

2. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure) Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

4. Turn the power switch off and wait for 30 seconds.

5. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

6. Put the engine in inspection mode (maintenance mode) Component Tests and General Diagnostics.

7. Start the engine and wait 5 minutes.

8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.

9. Read the pending DTCs.

HINT
- If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.

10. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.

11. Input the DTC: P2237, P2238, P2239, P2252 or P2253.

12. Check the DTC judgment result.





HINT
- If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
- If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
- If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, idle the engine for 5 minutes and check the DTC judgment result again.

13. If no pending DTC is output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

HINT
- If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

WIRING DIAGRAM

Refer to DTC P2195 P2195.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

HINT
Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The hybrid vehicle control ECU records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR FUEL RATIO SENSOR - HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU) P0171

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. REPLACE AIR FUEL RATIO SENSOR

(a) Replace the air fuel ratio sensor Removal.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(e) Drive the vehicle referring to the Confirmation Driving Pattern.

(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes / Pending.

(g) Read the Pending DTCs.
