DTC P013A: O2 Sensor Slow Response - Rich To Lean Bank 1 Sensor 2: Notes

DTC detecting condition:

Detected when two consecutive driving cycles with fault occur.

CAUTION: After servicing or replacing faulty parts, perform Clear Memory Mode Ref. to OPERATION , Clear Memory Mode., and Inspection Mode Ref. to PROCEDURE , Inspection Mode..

Step	Check	Yes	No
1 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the connector from ECM. Disconnect the connector from rear oxygen sensor. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector. Connector & terminal (B136) No. 21 - (E25) No. 3:	Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?	Go to step 2.	Repair the harness and connector. NOTE: In this case, repair the following item: Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector Poor contact of coupling connector
2 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR. Measure the resistance between rear oxygen sensor connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (E25) No. 3 - Chassis ground:	Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?	Go to step 3.	Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector.
3 CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR. Measure the resistance between rear oxygen sensor terminals. Terminals No. 3 - No. 4	Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?	Replace the rear oxygen sensor. Ref. to Rear Oxygen Sensor .	Even if DTC is detected, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again. NOTE: In this case, temporary poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause.
