DTC Detection Logic

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

To judge the malfunction of A/F sensor 1, this diagnosis measures response time of the A/F signal computed by ECM from the A/F sensor 1 signal. The time is compensated by engine operating (speed and load), fuel feedback control constant, and the A/F sensor 1 temperature index. Judgment is based on whether the compensated time (the A/F signal cycling time index) is inordinately long or not.

DTC DETECTING CONDITION AND POSSIBLE CAUSE

DTC No. Trouble diagnosis name DTC detecting condition Possible Cause
P0133 Air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor 1 circuit slow response
  • The response of the A/F signal computed by ECM from A/F sensor 1 signal takes more than the specified time.
  • Harness or connectors

    (The A/F sensor 1 circuit is open or shorted.)

  • A/F sensor 1
  • A/F sensor 1 heater
  • Fuel pressure
  • Fuel injector
  • Intake air leaks
  • Exhaust gas leaks
  • PCV
  • Mass air flow sensor
