A voltage corresponding to the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas is sent to the ECM terminal O2RR from the output terminal of the right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear).
Terminal of the right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear) is grounded with ECM terminal ORRE.
The ECM applies an offset voltage of 0.5 volt to ground terminal of the right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear).
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The output signal of the right bank linear air-fuel ratio sensor is compensated by the output signal of the right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear).
The ECM checks for the right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear) output voltage.
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear) output voltage does not change during specified.

DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
MB992744: Vehicle Communication Interface-Lite (V.C.I.-Lite)
MB992745: V.C.I.-Lite Main Harness A
MB992747: V.C.I.-Lite USB Cable Short
MB992748: V.C.I.-Lite USB Cable Long
MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
MB991824: Vehicles Communication Interface (V.C.I.)
MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable
MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with CAN communication system)
STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-III), check data list item AD: Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1, Sensor 2 (right rear).
caution
To prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-III), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-III).
(1) Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-III). Refer to HOW TO CONNECT THE SCAN TOOL (M.U.T.-III) .
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Set scan tool (M.U.T.-III) to the data reading mode for item AD, Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1, Sensor 2 (right rear).
Transaxle: 2nd
Drive with wide open throttle
Engine: 3,500 r/min
The output voltages should be between 0.6 and 1.0 volt.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Is the sensor operating properly?
It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions .
Replace the right bank heated oxygen sensor (rear). Then go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 13 .
(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Is DTC P0140 set?
Refer to DTC P0137 - Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear) Circuit Low Voltage (bank 1, sensor 2) , DTC P0138 - Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear) Circuit High Voltage (bank 1, sensor 2) .
