PGM-FI System
Primary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Primary HO2S) (Sensor 1)
The Heated Oxygen Sensors (HO2S) detect the oxygen content in the exhaust gas and signal the ECM/PCM. In operation,
the ECM/PCM receives the signals from the sensor and varies the duration during which fuel is iniected. To stabilize the
sensor's output, the sensor has an internal heater. The Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) is installed in exhaust pipe A.

tFO133 lhe scan tool indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0133: A slow response problem in the Primary Heated: Oxysen Sensor (Primarv HO2S (Sensor 1) circuit.
Description
By controlling the airlfuel ratio with a Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) and a Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2), the deterioration of the
Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) can be evaluated by its feedback period. When the feedback period of the HO2S exceeds a cer
tain value during stable driving conditions, the sensor will be judged as deteriorated.
When deterioration has been detected during two consecutive trips, the MIL comes on and DTC P0133 will be stored.
NOTE: lf DTC P0131, P0132 and/or P0135 are stored at the same time as DTC P0133. troubleshoot those DTCS first, then
troubleshoot DTC P0133.
Possible Cause
. Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) Deterioration
. Primary HO2S Heater (Sensor 1) Deterioration
