OBD System Description - Oxygen Sensor Monitor

System Description / Monitoring Procedure

Primary HO2S

For a primary HO2S, the system monitors maximum and minimum voltage, lean-to-rich and rich-to-lean response rates, and switching cycles during monitoring conditions once per driving cycle. The sensor is also monitored for activity continuously.

Secondary HO2S

A secondary HO2S is used for catalyst monitoring only. During monitoring conditions, the system measures maximum and minimum output voltages and compares the voltage with malfunction criteria once per diving cycle.

DTC Description / Detecting Condition / Confirmation Procedure
