CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
To obtain a high purification rate for the CO, HC and NOx components of the exhaust gas, a three±way
catalytic converter is used, but for most efficient use of the three±way catalytic converter, the air±fuel
ratio must be precisely controlled so that it is always close to the stoichiometric air±fuel ratio.
The oxygen sensor has the characteristic whereby its output voltage changes suddenly in the vicinity
of the stoichiometric air±fuel ratio. This characteristic is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the
exhaust gas and provide feedback to the computer for control of the air±fuel ratio.
When the air±fuel ratio becomes LEAN, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust increases and the
oxygen sensor informs the ECM of the LEAN condition (small electromotive force: 0 V).
When the air±fuel ratio is RICHER than the stoichiometric air±fuel ratio the oxygen concentration in the
exhaust gas is reduced and the oxygen sensor informs the ECM of the RICH condition (large electro-
motive force: 1 V).
The ECm judges by the electromotive force from the oxygen sensor whether the air±fuel ratio if RICH
or LEAN and controls the injection duration accordingly. However, if malfunction of the oxygen sensor
causes an output of abnormal electromotive force, the ECM is unable to perform accurate air±fuel ratio
control.
The main heated oxygen sensor include a heater which heats the Zirconia element. The heater is con-
trolled by the ECM. When the intake air volume is low (the temperature of the exhaust has is low) current
flows to the heater to heat the sensor for accurate oxygen concentration detection.)

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

converter is used, but for most efficient use of the three±way catalytic converter, the air±fuel ratio must be pre-
cisely controlled so that it is always close to the stoichiometric air±fuel ratio.
The oxygen sensor has the characteristic whereby its output voltage changes suddenly in the vicinity of the stoi-
chiometric air±fuel ratio. This characteristic is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas and
provide feedback to the computer for control of the air fuel ratio.

sor informs the ECM of the LEAN condition (small electromotive force: 0 V).
