PGM-FI System
Primary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Primary HO2S) lSensor 1) (cont'd)
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
. Exhaust system leakage
Troubleshooting Flowchart
- The MIL has b6€n reoorted on.- DTC P0133 is stored.
Problem Verilication:'1. Do the ECM/PCM Reset Procedure.2. Connect the scan tool.3. Start the engine. Hold theengine at 3,000 rpm with noload lin Park or neutrali untilthe radiator fan comes on.4. Connect the SCS service connector.5. Test-drive under the followingcondations,55 mph (89 km/h) steadyspeed- M in @ position (E position and Over Drive ON)*,(M/T in sth gear)- Until readiness code comes
Intermittent failure, system is OKat this time. Check tor poor con-nections or loose wires at C111(Primary HO2S, Sensor 1) and althe ECM/PCM.
Replace the Primary HO2S {Sen-sor 11.
