Trouble Code Number
- Scan tool 62
- General Scan Tool P0132
- MIL 21

- Upstream HO2S Shorted to Voltage

Background
- Upstream heated oxygen sensor requires a heater circuit for proper operation.
- The heater circuit is supplied with battery voltage through the MFI relay (ASD relay).
- A failure in the sensors heater circuit prevents it from providing accurate data to the PCM.
- If the PCM monitors more than 1.2 volts, the sensor has shorted to heater circuit voltage.

Range of Check
- Two or more minutes after the engine starts
- Engine coolant temperature: 80°C (176°F) or more
