DTC P0132: Heated Oxygen Sensor Circuit High Voltage (sensor 1)


CIRCUIT OPERATION
• A voltage corresponding to the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas is sent to the ECM (terminal No. 76) <M/T> or PCM (terminal No. 71) <A/T> from the output terminal (terminal No. 4) of the heated oxygen sensor (front).
• Terminal No. 2 of the heated oxygen sensor (front) is grounded with ECM (terminal No. 92) <M/T> or PCM (terminal No. 57) <A/T>.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
• The heated oxygen sensor (front) detects the concentration of oxygen in the exhaust gas; it converts those data to voltage, and inputs the resulting signals to the ECM <M/T> or PCM <A/T>.
• When the heated oxygen sensor (front) begins to deteriorate, the heated oxygen sensor signal response becomes poor.
• The ECM <M/T> or PCM <A/T> forcibly varies the air/fuel mixture to make it leaner and richer, and checks the response speed of the heated oxygen sensor (front). In addition, the ECM <M/T> or PCM <A/T> also checks for an open circuit in the heated oxygen sensor (front) output line.
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
• If the heated oxygen sensor (front) output is higher than the standard value while monitoring the heated oxygen sensor (front) output, a short circuit (short circuit to power supply) is determined to have occurred.
