On Board Diagnosis LogicNBEC0282HThe closed loop control has the one trip detection logic.
Malfunction is detected when the closed loop control function for
right bank does not operate even when vehicle is driving in the
specified condition, the closed loop control function for left bank
does not operate even when vehicle is driving in the specified
condition.
Possible CauseNBEC0531IThe front heated oxygen sensor circuit is open or shorted.

DTC Confirmation ProcedureNBEC0283CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
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:
INever raise engine speed above 3,600 rpm during the
ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº. If the engine speed limit is
exceeded, retry the procedure from step 2.
IBefore performing the following procedure, confirm that
battery voltage is more than 11V at idle.

WITH CONSULT-IINBEC0283S011) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
2) Select ªDATA MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
3) Hold engine speed at 2,000 rpm and check one of the follow-
ing.
IªHO2S1 (B1)/(B2)º voltage should go above 0.70V at least
once.
IªHO2S1 (B1)/(B2)º voltage should go below 0.21V at least
once.

Component DescriptionNBEC0326The EVAP canister vent control valve is located on the EVAP can-
ister and is used to seal the canister vent.
This solenoid valve responds to signals from the ECM. When the
ECM sends an ON signal, the coil in the solenoid valve is ener-
gized. A plunger will then move to seal the canister vent. The abil-
ity to seal the vent is necessary for the on board diagnosis of other
evaporative emission control system components.
This solenoid valve is used only for diagnosis, and usually remains
opened.
When the vent is closed, under normal purge conditions, the
evaporative emission control system is depressurized and allows
ªEVAP Control System (Small Leak)º diagnosis.

Sensor Input Signal to ECMECM func-
tionActuator
Crankshaft position sensor (POS) Engine speed (POS signal)
Fuel pump
controlFuel pump relay Crankshaft position sensor (REF) Engine speed (REF signal)
Ignition switch Start signal
The ECM activates the fuel pump for several seconds after the ignition switch is turned on to improve engine
startability. If the ECM receives a 120É signal from the crankshaft position sensor (REF), it knows that the
engine is rotating, and causes the pump to operate. If the 120É signal is not received when the ignition switch
is on, the engine stalls. The ECM stops pump operation and prevents battery discharging, thereby improving
safety. The ECM does not directly drive the fuel pump. It controls the ON/OFF fuel pump relay, which in turn
controls the fuel pump.
Condition Fuel pump operation
Ignition switch is turned to ON. Operates for 1 second.
Engine running and cranking Operates.
When engine is stopped Stops in 1.5 seconds.
