The engine control component part/control system has a trouble code, it is displayed as PXXXX. (Refer to
EC-19, "
INDEX FOR DTC" .)
FUEL SYS-B1

“Fuel injection system status” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.

One mode in the following is displayed.
“Mode2”: Open loop due to detected system malfunction
“Mode3”: Open loop due to driving conditions (power enrichment, deceleration enleanment)
“Mode4”: Closed loop - using oxygen sensor(s) as feedback for fuel control
“Mode5”: Open loop - has not yet satisfied condition to go to closed loop

HO2S1 MNTR (B1)
[RICH/LEAN]××

Display of heated oxygen sensor 1 signal dur-
ing air-fuel ratio feedback control:
RICH: means the mixture became “rich”, and
control is being affected toward a leaner mix-
ture.
LEAN: means the mixture became “lean”, and
control is being affected toward a rich mixture.
After turning ON the ignition
switch, “RICH” is displayed until
air-fuel mixture ratio feedback
control begins.

When the air-fuel ratio feedback is
clamped, the value just before the
clamping is displayed continu-
ously.
HO2S2 MNTR (B1)
[RICH/LEAN]×

Display of heated oxygen sensor 2 signal:
RICH: means the amount of oxygen after three
way catalyst is relatively small.
LEAN: means the amount of oxygen after
three way catalyst is relatively large.

CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor ModeEBS010M0
Remarks:

Specification data are reference values.

Specification data are output/input values which are detected or supplied by the ECM at the connector.
* Specification data may not be directly related to their components signals/values/operations.
i.e. Adjust ignition timing with a timing light before monitoring IGN TIMING, because the monitor may show the specification data in
spite of the ignition timing not being adjusted to the specification data. This IGN TIMING monitors the data calculated by the ECM
according to the signals input from the camshaft position sensor and other ignition timing related sensors.

tion.Almost the same speed as the

Major Sensor Reference Graph in Data Monitor ModeEBS010M1
The following are the major sensor reference graphs in “DATA MONITOR” mode.
