General Information: DTC Detecting Condition

DTC DETECTING CONDITIONS

Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
DTC Strategy
  • Evaluate O2 sensor Element Temperature via measuring Element Resistance
  • Related fuse blown or missing
  • Heater control circuit open or short
  • Power supply circuit open or short
  • Poor connection or damaged harness
  • Faulty HO2S
Enable Conditions
  • O2 sensor pre-heating phase finished (dew point passed)
  • No relevant failure
  • Coolant temperature drop since the last engine stop > 25°C (77°F)
  • 10V< Battery voltage <16V
  • 3.5%< O2 sensor heater control duty < 96.5%
  • O2 sensor operative ready (to ensure no open circuit failure present)
Threshold Value
  • Too slow O2 sensor tip-temperature increase after Start causing too low catalyst diagnosis result (O2 Sensor Heater Power < 20% of Nominal Heater Power)
Diagnostic Time
  • 130 sec.
Mil On Condition
  • 2 Driving Cycles
