HINT:

When any of these DTCs are set, check the A/F sensor voltage output by selecting the following menu
items on a hand-held tester: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / AFS B1S1.

Short-term fuel trim values can also be read using a hand-held tester.

The ECM regulates the voltage at the A1A+ and A1A± terminals of the ECM at a constant level. There-
fore, the A/F sensor voltage output cannot be confirmed without using a hand±held tester.

If the A/F sensor functional malfunction is detected, the ECM sets this DTC.

NOTICE:
The Air±Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor has an output delay of a few seconds and the Heated Oxygen (HO2)
sensor has a maximum output delay of approximately 20 seconds.

Following the A/F CONTROL procedure enables technicians to check and graph the voltage outputs
of both the A/F and HO2 sensors.

To display the graph, select the following menu items on the tester: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD
II / ACTIVE TEST / A/F CONTROL / USER DATA / AFS B1S1 and O2S B1S2, and press the YES but-
ton and then the ENTER button followed by the F4 button.
HINT:

Read freeze frame data using a hand±held tester. Freeze frame data record the engine condition when
malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle
was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air±fuel ratio was lean or rich, and
other data, from the time the malfunction occurred.

A low A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a rich air±fuel mixture. Check for conditions that would
cause the engine to run rich.

A high A/F sensor voltage could be caused by a lean air±fuel mixture. Check for conditions that would
cause the engine to run lean.

3 Read value output voltage of A/F sensor.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Start the engine and turn the scan tool ON.
(c) Warm up the Air±Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor at an engine speed of 2,500 rpm for 90 seconds.
CHECK:
(a) Using the scan tool, check the A/F sensor voltage 3 times, once when the engine is in each of the fol-
lowing conditions:
(1) While idling (check for at least 30 seconds)
(2) At an engine speed of approximately 2,500 rpm (without any sudden changes in engine speed)
(3) Raise the engine speed to 4,000 rpm and then quickly release the accelerator pedal so that the
throttle valve is fully closed.
Standard:
ConditionsA/F Sensor Voltage VariationsReference
(1) and (2)Changes at approx 0.66 VBetween 0.62 V and 0.7 V
(3)Increases to 0.76 V or moreThis occurs during engine deceleration
(when fuel±cut performed)
For more information, see the diagrams below.
HINT:

If the output voltage of the A/F sensor remains at approximately 0.66 V (see Malfunction Condition
diagram) under any conditions, including those above, the A/F sensor may have an open circuit. (This
will also happen if the A/F sensor heater has an open circuit.)

If the output voltage of the A/F sensor remains at either approximately 0.76 V or more, or 0.56 V or
less (see Malfunction Condition diagram) under any conditions, including those above, the A/F sensor
may have a short circuit.

The ECM stops fuel injection (fuel cut) during engine deceleration. This causes a lean condition and
results in a momentary increase in the A/F sensor output voltage.

2005 SEQUOIA (RM1146U)

The ECM must establish a closed throttle valve position learning value to perform fuel cut. If the battery
terminal has been reconnected, the vehicle must be driven over 10 mph (16 km/h) to allow the ECM
to learn the closed throttle valve position.

When the vehicle is driven:
The output voltage of the A/F sensor may be below 0.56 V during fuel enrichment. For the vehicle, this
translates to a sudden increase in speed with the accelerator pedal fully depressed when trying to over-
take another vehicle. The A/F sensor is functioning normally.

The A/F sensor is a current output element; therefore, the current is converted into a voltage inside
the ECM. Measuring the voltage at the connectors of the A/F sensor or ECM will show a constant volt-
age result.
