Air Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor Monitor and Readiness Code: Procedure

  1. Start the engine.
  2. Test-drive the vehicle under stop-and-go conditions with short periods of steady cruise. During the drive, decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds. After about 5.6 km (3.5 miles), the readiness code should switch from incomplete to complete.
  3. Check the readiness codes screen for the air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
    • If the screen shows complete, readiness is complete.
    • If the screen shows not complete, go to the next step.
  4. Check for a Temporary DTC. If there is no DTC, the enable criteria was probably not met. Select the DATA LIST MENU. Check the ECT SENSOR 1 in the ALL DATA LIST with the HDS. If the ECT SENSOR 1 is less than 60°C (140°F), run the engine until it is more than 60°C (140°F), then repeat the procedure.
