MONITOR RESULT
The detailed information is described in CHECKING MONITOR STATUSº (see page DI-3).
TID (Test Identification) is assigned to each emission-related component.
TLT (Test Limit Type):
If TLT is 0, the component is malfunctioning when the test value is higher than the test limit.
If TLT is 1, the component is malfunctioning when the test value is lower than the test limit.
CID (Component Identification) is assigned to each test value.
Unit Conversion is used to calculate the test value indicated on generic OBD scan tools.

CONFIRMATION ENGINE RACING PATTERN
(a) Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3, or connect the probe of the oscilloscope between terminals
OXL1, OXL2, OXR1, OXR2 and E1 of the ECM connector.
(b) Start the engine and warm it up with all accessories switched OFF until engine coolant temperature
is stable.
(c) Race the engine at 2,500 - 3,000 rpm for about 3 minutes.
(d) After confirming that the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor (bank 1, 2 sensor 1 (OX1A, OX2A)),
oscillate around 0.5 V during feedback to the ECM, check the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor
(bank 1, 2 sensor 2 (OX1B, OX2B)).
HINT:
If there is a malfunction in the system, the waveform of the
heated oxygen sensor (bank 1, 2 sensor 2 (OX1B, OX2B)) is
almost the same as that of the heated oxygen sensor (bank 1,
2 sensor 1 (OX1A, OX2A)) on the left.
There are some cases where, even though a malfunction ex-
ists, the MIL may either light up or not light up.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data records the
engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help deter-
mine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean
or rich, as well as other data from the time when a malfunction occurred.
1 Are there any other codes (besides DTC P0420 or P0430) being output?
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool main switch ON.
(c) When using hand-held tester, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC
INFO / CURRENT CODES.
CHECK:
Read the DTC using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.
RESULT:

first.

NG Replace heated oxygen sensor.
OK
Replace the front and rear three-way catalyt-
ic converter in the bank a malfunction is de-
tected.
HINT:
Hand-held tester only:
The narrowing down the trouble area is possible by performing ACTIVE TEST of the following ºA/F CON-
TROLº (Heated oxygen sensor or another can be distinguished).
(a) Perform ACTIVE TEST by hand-held tester (A/F CONTROL).
HINT:
ºA/F CONTROLº is the ACTIVE TEST which changes the injection volume to -12.5 % or +25 %.
(1) Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3 on the vehicle.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3) Warm up the engine with the engine speed at 2,500 rpm for approximately 90 seconds.
(4) Select the item ºDIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / A/F CONTROLº.
(5) Perform ºA/F CONTROLº with the engine in an idle condition (press the right or left button).
RESULT:
Heated oxygen sensor reacts in accordance with increase and decrease of injection volume
+25 % " rich output: More than 0.5 V
-12.5 % " lean output: Less than 0.4 V

NOTICE:
However, there is a few second delay in the sensor 1 (front sensor) output. And there is about 20 se-
conds delay in the sensor 2 (rear sensor).
The following A/F CONTROL procedure enables the technician to check and graph the voltage output of
the heated oxygen sensors (sensor 1 and 2).
For displaying the graph indication, enter ºACTIVE TEST / A/F CONTROL / USER DATAº then select ºO2S
B1S1 and O2S B1S2º by pressing ºYESº button and push ºENTERº button before pressing ºF4º button.
NOTICE:
If the vehicle is short of fuel, the air-fuel ratio becomes LEAN and DTCs P0133 and/or P0153 will be
recorded, and the MIL then comes on.
If different DTCs related to different systems while terminal E2 as ground terminal are output simulta-
neously, terminal E2 may be open.
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data records
the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determin-
ing whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio
was lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
A high heated oxygen sensor (sensor 1) voltage (0.5 V or more) could be caused by a rich air fuel mix-
ture. Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run rich.
A low heated oxygen sensor (sensor 1) voltage (0.4 V or less) could be caused by a lean air fuel mix-
ture. Check for conditions that would cause the engine to run lean.

DTC P2418 Evaporative Emission System Valve Control
Circuit/Open
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The vapor pressure sensor, canister closed valve (CCV), and pressure switching valve are used to detect
abnormalities in the evaporative emission control system.
The ECM decides whether there is an abnormality in the evaporative emission control system based on the
vapor pressure sensor signal.
DTCs P0441, P0446 and P2418 are recorded by the ECM when evaporative emissions leak from the compo-
nents within the dotted line in Fig. 1 below, or when there is a malfunction in either the EVAP VSV, the pres-
sure switching valve, or in the vapor pressure sensor itself.
