DTC P0134: A/F/O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected Bank 1 Sensor 1: Notes

DTC detecting condition: 

Immediately at fault recognition

CAUTION: Use the check board when measuring the ECM terminal voltage and resistance. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO)>GENERAL DESCRIPTION>PREPARATION TOOL>HOW TO USE CHECK BOARD .
NOTE: After the faulty parts are repaired or replaced, perform the final check in Basic Diagnostic Procedure. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO)>BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE>PROCEDURE .

  1. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND FRONT OXYGEN (A/F) SENSOR CONNECTOR (OPEN)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
    2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
    3. Disconnect the connectors from front oxygen (A/F) sensor.
    4. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector.

      Connector & terminal 

      (E158) No. 3 - (B379) No. 3:

      (E158) No. 4 - (B379) No. 4:

    Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

    Yes:  Go to  2.

    No:  In this case, repair the following item:

    • Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector
    • Poor contact of coupling connector no yes no
  2. CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT  .

    Check for poor contact of ECM and front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector.

    Is there poor contact of ECM or front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector?

    Yes:  Repair the poor contact of ECM or front oxygen (A/F) sensor connector.

    No:  Replace the front oxygen (A/F) sensor. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO)>FRONT OXYGEN (A/F) SENSOR .
