DTC Information: DTC Detecting Condition

Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
DTC Strategy
  • Check lambda signal amplitude (Slow response)
  • Poor connector connection
  • Leak or clog in intake air system
  • Fuel pressure
  • HO2S (Bank1, Sensor1)
Enable Conditions
  • Sensor ceramic temperature is greater than 800°C (1472°F)
  • Sensor forced stimulation active
  • When the upstream oxygen sensor heating time is more than 30 seconds, it is in the maximum heating or normal heating state.
  • Normal 12V battery voltage (11 to 16V)
  • Sensor operative readiness detected
  • The difference between the set value and the actual lambda value is less than 0.25
  • Coolant temperature above 50°C (122°F)
  • Catalyst temperature 520 to 957°C (968 to 1754.6°F)
Threshold Value
  • When the ratio of the actual oxygen sensor value to the model value is greater than 1
Diagnostic Time
  • 25s
MIL ON Condition
  • 2 driving cycles
