General Description
The linear O2 sensor is mounted on the front side of the Catalytic Converter (warm-up catalytic converter) or in the front exhaust pipe. It detects a wide range of air/fuel ratios in the exhaust gas from the rich to lean regions. This linear O2 sensor produces a current that corresponds to a specific air/fuel ratio. The ECM monitors this signal and determines whether the air/fuel mixture is rich or lean. The ECM constantly monitors the linear O2 sensor and increases or decreases the fuel injection duration using this signal. This is called closed-loop fuel control operation.
DTC Description
The ECM monitors front HO2S signal level during part load or full load operation to check if the front HO2S is mechanically attached to the exhaust gas pipe while the vehicle is running. The ECM sets DTC P2414 if front HO2S signal is within the predetermined threshold.
If the same error code is set in the next driving cycle, the ECM illuminates the MIL.
