MONITOR STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
This function was written for exhaust gas systems having two banks, where a sensor interchange cannot be avoided by hardware measures. In case the upstream sensors were interchanged it is expected that both lambda signals will drift from the set point in different directions and the lambda controllers achieve their maximum. A symptom can be detected if the lambda controller correction of one bank crosses the min threshold whereas the other one crosses the max threshold.

MONITOR STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
Sensor signal excursion:

In order to determine the signal fault, voltage excursion implausible, the difference in the measured voltage between rich and lean is compared to a calibratable threshold. Plausibility fault:

P0159 (Bank 2) Refer to DTC P0159: HO2S Slow Response Bank 2 Sensor 2. P0159

MONITOR STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
Changes in the dynamic behaviour of the monitor sensor can be detected by the recognition of the rich-lean switching time after fuel cut-off. After detection of the DFCO engine operating state, the rich-lean switching time of the lambda sensor is determined and weighted depending upon the mass air flow in the intake system. The functioning of the sensor is diagnosed by comparison of the mean value of the weighted switching time with a limit. The functioning is guaranteed in this test if the switching time is below the limit.

P0156 (B2S2) Refer to DTC P0156: HO2S Circuit Bank 2 Sensor 2. P0156

MONITOR STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
Active check:
The diagnosis monitors that a sufficient high lambda sensor voltage which is necessary for trim control and catalyst diagnosis can be reached. i.e. 0.55 V. As soon as the said threshold is exceeded the lambda sensor is recognized as able to provide a sufficiently large voltage signal and the end bit is set. To ensure a robust diagnosis result, a certain time in terms of a mass air integral threshold (1,000 g) is awaited, while the lambda control is in Closed Loop and fuel trim correction controller is activated.
In case that the lambda sensor has not provided a sufficient voltage value after the mass air flow integral threshold has elapsed, lambda control Closed Loop is stopped and an intrusive test is started by shifting the lambda set point to rich air fuel mixture (lambda = 0.8). At this time a fuel trim correction DTC (assigned to FSD, P2096-P2099) is entered due to opening Closed Loop (as malfunction indicator) and the intrusive operation is used to allocate the root cause for the insufficient lambda sensor voltage range. Reason is that in principle also a leak in the exhaust pipe may lead to a too lean mixture at the rear sensor position without the sensor having a malfunction. An additional precondition for the intrusive test is that a time after start has elapsed (300 sec.).

This Diagnosis is also to detect the Electrical malfunction open circuit in the signal lines
