DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P2195 P2195.
HINT
- DTC P2A00 indicates malfunctions related to the bank 1 air fuel ratio sensor.
- DTC P2A03 indicates malfunctions related to the bank 2 air fuel ratio sensor.
- Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes cylinder No. 1.
- Bank 2 refers to the bank that includes cylinder No. 2.
- Sensor 1 refers to the sensor mounted in front of the three-way catalytic converter and located near the engine assembly.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
After engine is warmed up, the ECM performs air fuel ratio feedback control to maintain the air fuel ratio at the stoichiometric level. In addition, active air fuel ratio control is performed for approximately 10 seconds after preconditions are met in order to measure the air fuel ratio sensor response rate. During active air fuel ratio control, the ECM forcibly increases and decreases the injection volume a certain amount, based on the stoichiometric air fuel ratio learned during normal air fuel ratio control, and measures the air fuel ratio sensor response rate. The ECM receives a signal from the air fuel ratio sensor while performing active air fuel ratio control and uses it to calculate the air fuel ratio sensor response rate deterioration level.
If the value for air fuel ratio sensor response rate deterioration level is less than the threshold, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction and sets the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT
Malfunctioning areas can be identified by performing the Control the Injection Volume function provided in the Active Test. The Control the Injection Volume function can help to determine whether the air-fuel ratio sensor, heated oxygen sensor and other potential trouble areas are malfunctioning.
The following instructions describe how to conduct the Control the Injection Volume operation using the Techstream.
1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Start the engine and turn the Techstream on.
3. Warm up the engine at an engine speed of 2500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Injection Volume.
5. Perform the Active Test operation with the engine in an idling condition (press the RIGHT or LEFT button to change the fuel injection volume).
6. Monitor the output voltages of the air fuel ratio sensor and heated oxygen sensors (AFS Voltage B1S1 and O2S B1S2 or AFS Voltage B2S1 and O2S B2S2) displayed on the Techstream.
HINT
- Change the fuel injection volume within the range of -12% to +12%. The injection volume can be changed in fine gradations within this range.
- Each sensor reacts in accordance with increases and decreases in the fuel injection volume.

NOTICE:
The Air-Fuel Ratio sensor has an output delay of a few seconds and the Heated Oxygen sensor has a maximum output delay of approximately 20 seconds.
- Following the Control the Injection Volume procedure enables technicians to check and graph the voltage outputs of both the air fuel ratio and heated oxygen sensors.
- To display the graph, enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Injection Volume / AFS Voltage B1S1 and O2S B1S2 or AFS Voltage B2S1 and O2S B2S2; and then press the graph button on the Data List view.
