DTC Description

The PCM monitors rich-lean switching time of rear heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) after fuel cutoff to validate dynamic behavior of rear heated oxygen sensor (HO2S). After detection of fuel cutoff engine operating state, the PCM measures rich-lean switching time of the rear heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) signal and compares it to the predetermined limit value. DTC P0139 is set when the switching time is bigger than the limit value.
