    If the CO/HC concentration does not comply with regulations, troubleshooting in the order given below.

    1. Check the A/F sensor operation (See DTC P2195 OXYGEN (A/F) SENSOR SIGNAL STUCK LEAN (BANK 1 SENSOR 1), DTC P2196 OXYGEN (A/F) SENSOR SIGNAL STUCK RICH (BANK 1 SENSOR 1) and DTC P2238 OXYGEN SENSOR PUMPING CURRENT CIRCUIT / LOW (FOR A/F SENSOR) (BANK 1 SENSOR 1), DTC P2239 OXYGEN SENSOR PUMPING CURRENT CIRCUIT / HIGH (FOR A/F SENSOR) (BANK 1 SENSOR 1) ).
