DESCRIPTION Refer to DTC P2195 (See page
).
HINT:
- Although the DTC titles say oxygen sensor, these DTCs relate to the Air-Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor.
- Sensor 1 refers to the sensor mounted in front of the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) and located near the engine assembly.
- When one of these DTCs is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. The ECM
turns off the A/F sensor heater in fail-safe mode. Fail-safe mode
continues until the ignition switch is turned off.
- The ECM provides a pulse width modulated control circuit to adjust the
current through the heater. The A/F sensor heater circuit uses a relay
on the +B side of the circuit.

| MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The
ECM uses information from the Air-Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor to regulate
the air-fuel ratio and keep it close to the stoichiometric level. This
maximizes the ability of the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) to
purify the exhaust gases. The A/F sensor detects
oxygen levels in the exhaust gas and transmits the information to the
ECM. The inner surface of the sensor element is exposed to the outside
air. The outer surface of the sensor element is exposed to the exhaust
gas. The sensor element is made of platinum coated zirconia and includes
an integrated heating element. The zirconia
element generates a small voltage when there is a large difference in
the oxygen concentrations between the exhaust gas and outside air. The
platinum coating amplifies this voltage generation. The
A/F sensor is more efficient when heated. When the exhaust gas
temperature is low, the sensor cannot generate useful voltage signals
without supplementary heating. The ECM regulates the supplementary
heating using a duty-cycle approach to adjust the average current in the
sensor heater element. If the heater current is outside the normal
range, the signal transmitted by the A/F sensor becomes inaccurate. As a
result, the ECM is unable to regulate the air-fuel ratio properly. When
the current in the A/F sensor heater is outside the normal operating
range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor heater and
stores a DTC. MONITOR STRATEGY
