Front Ho2S Heaters
The HO2S heaters are monitored for proper voltage and current. A HO2S heater voltage fault is determined by turning the heater on and off and looking for corresponding voltage change in the heater output driver circuit in the PCM.
A separate current-monitoring circuit monitors heater current once per driving cycle. If the measured heater current falls below or above a calibratable threshold, the heater is assumed to be degraded or malfunctioning.
HO2S HEATER MONITOR OPERATION:
| DTCs Sensor 1 | P0135 - O2 Sensor Heater Circuit, Bank 1 P0155 - O2 Sensor Heater Circuit, Bank 2 P0053 - HO2S Sensor Heater Resistance, Bank 1 P0059 - HO2S Sensor Heater Resistance, Bank 2 |
| Monitor execution | once per driving cycle for heater current, continuous for voltage monitoring |
| Monitor Sequence | Heater current monitor: Stream 1 HO2S/UEGO response test completed (2010 MY and earlier), Stream 2 and 3 HO2S functional tests completed (2010 MY and earlier), HO2S/UEGO heater voltage check completed |
| Sensors OK | Heater current monitor: no HO2S/UEGO heater voltage DTCs |
| Monitoring Duration | < 10 seconds for heater voltage check, < 5 seconds for heater current check |
