SEF327R
Component DescriptionNBEC0146The heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear), after three way catalyst, moni-
tors the oxygen level in the exhaust gas on each bank.
Even if switching characteristics of the heated oxygen sensor 1
(front) are shifted, the air fuel ratio is controlled to stoichiometric,
by the signal from the heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear).
This sensor is made of ceramic zirconia. The zirconia generates
voltage from approximately 1V in richer conditions to 0V in leaner
conditions.
Under normal conditions the heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear) is not
used for engine control operation.

ECM Terminals and Reference ValueNBEC0660Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

On Board Diagnosis LogicNBEC0149The heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear) has a much longer switching
time between rich and lean than the heated oxygen sensor 1
(front). The oxygen storage capacity before the three way catalyst
causes the longer switching time. To judge the malfunctions of
heated oxygen sensor 2 (rear), ECM monitors whether the switch-
ing response of the sensor's voltage is faster than specified during
the various driving condition such as fuel-cut.
Malfunction is detected when it takes more time for the sensor to
respond between rich and lean than the specified time.

DTC Confirmation ProcedureNBEC0150NOTE:
If ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº has been previously conducted,
always turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 10 seconds
before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION:
Open engine hood before conducting following procedure.
WITH CONSULT-IINBEC0150S011) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
2) Turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 10 seconds.
3) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
4) Select ªDATA MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
5) Make sure that ªCOOLAN TEMP/Sº indicates more than 70ÉC
(158ÉF).
6) Select ªHO2S2 (B1)/(B2) P0139/P0159º of ªHO2S2º in ªDTC
WORK SUPPORTº mode with CONSULT-II.
7) Start engine and follow the instruction of CONSULT-II.
8) Make sure that ªOKº is displayed after touching ªSELF-DIAG
RESULTSº.
If NG is displayed, refer to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-272.
If ªCANNOT BE DIAGNOSEDº is displayed, perform the fol-
lowing.
a) Stop engine and cool down until ªCOOLAN TEMP/Sº indicates
less than 70ÉC (158ÉF).
b) Turn ignition switch ªONº.
c) Select ªDATA MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
d) Start engine.
e) Return to step 6 again when the ªCOOLAN TEMP/Sº reaches
to 70ÉC (158ÉF).

Overall Function CheckNBEC0151Use this procedure to check the overall function of the rear heated
oxygen sensor circuit. During this check, a 1st trip DTC might not
be confirmed.
WITH GSTNBEC0151S011) Start engine and drive vehicle at a speed of more than 70 km/h
(43 MPH) for 2 consecutive minutes.
2) Stop vehicle with engine running.
3) Set voltmeter probes between ECM terminal 72 (HO2S2 bank

1 right signal) or 71 (HO2S2 bank 2 left signal) and engine
ground.
4) Check the voltage when racing up to 4,000 rpm under no load
at least 10 times.
(Depress and release accelerator pedal as soon as possible.)
The voltage should change at more than 0.06V for 1 sec-
ond during this procedure.
If the voltage can be confirmed in step 4, step 5 is not
necessary.
5) Keep vehicle at idling for 10 minutes, then check the voltage.
Or check the voltage when coasting from 80 km/h (50 MPH)
in ªDº position with ªODº OFF.
The voltage should change at more than 0.06V for 1 sec-
ond during this procedure.
6) If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-272.
