DTC Information: DTC Detecting Condition

Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
DTC Strategy
  • Check Lambda signal amplitude - slow response
  1. Poor connection
  2. Faulty HO2S
  3. Faulty ECM (PCM)
Enable Conditions
  • Upstream O2 sensor operative readiness is detected (Sensor tip temperature is greater than 680°C (1256 °F) or heater maximum heating or normal heating for 30 seconds)
  • O2 sensor Forced stimulation is active
  • P0420 (Catalyst Diagnosis) monitoring is active
  • P0133 diagnosis is synchronized with P0420 monitor
  • Battery voltage is between 11V and 16V
Threshold value
  • Integral (Lambda signal amplitude measured/Lambda signal amplitude of a slow sensor) is greater than 1
Diagnosis Time
  • 17 fuel trim controller cycles
MIL On Condition
  • 2 Driving Cycles
