DTC P0133 O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT SLOW RESPONSE (BANK 1 SENSOR 1)

1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
Detect the slow response of front oxygen (A/F) sensor.

Front oxygen (A/F) sensor cover has some ventilation holes for exhaust gas. Clogged ventilation holes are diagnosed.

When the holes are clogged, the A/F output variation becomes slow comparing with the actual A/F variation because oxygen which reaches the zirconia layer is insufficient. Therefore, if the sensor cover holes are clogged, the rich to lean judgment in the ECM is delayed when the change from rich to lean occurs.

Judge as NG when the actual movement in comparison to the ECM control amount is slow.






2. COMPONENT DESCRIPTION






3. ENABLE CONDITION

Enable Conditions:






4. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE
Perform diagnosis only once, at a constant speed of 10 - 120 km/h (6.21 - 74.6 MPH) in 120 seconds or more after warming up the engine.

5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
Calculate faf difference every 128 milliseconds, and the Lambda value difference. Calculate the diagnosis value after calculating 1640 times (210 seconds).

Judge as NG when the malfunction criteria below are completed. Judge as OK and clear the NG when the malfunction criteria below are not met.






Time Needed for Diagnosis: 210 seconds

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.

6. DTC CLEAR CONDITION
- When the OK idling cycle is completed 40 times in a row
- When "Clear Memory" is performed

7. MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CLEAR CONDITION
- When the OK driving cycle is completed 3 times in a row
- When "Clear Memory" is performed

8. FAIL SAFE
- Front oxygen (A/F) sensor main learning compensation: Not allowed to calculate.
- Correction when re-starting at high temperature: Normally minimum value 0.3 --> 0. - Purge control: Not allowed to purge.

9. ECM OPERATION AT DTC SETTING
- Memorize the freeze frame data. (For test mode $02)
- Memorize the diagnostic value and trouble standard value. (For test mode $06)
