DTC Information: DTC Detecting Condition

Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
Case 1 DTC Strategy
  • Feedback: fails to enter, defaults out by Load pulse.
  1. Poor connection
  2. Open in signal circuit
  3. HO2S (S2)
Enable Conditions
  • Duration of Down O2S greater than 0.4 and less than 0.5V for more than 3 sec.
  • Load pulse: End of 3rd pulse.
  • B+ greater than 10.7 V.
  • Heat quantity from exhaust gas around downstream O2S greater than 1~312 kJ.
Threshold Value
  • Average of loaded voltage greater than 2.8 V.
Case 2 DTC Strategy
  • Open circuit, Internal resistance too high.
Enable Conditions
  • B+ greater than 10.7 V.
  • EGT around downstream O2S greater than 600 °C (1112 °F) or Heat quantity from exhaust gas around downstream O2S greater than 1~312 kJ.
Threshold Value
  • Internal resistance greater than 40 kΩ.
Diagnostic Time
  • 3 sec.
MIL ON Condition
  • 2 driving cycles.
