P0132 O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Sensor 1)

General Information

Component Location





General Description

The heated oxygen sensors are mounted on the front side and the rear side of Catalytic Converter (warm-up catalytic converter), which detects the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas. The front HO2S signal is used to control air/fuel ratio (closed loop fuel control) and the rear HO2S signal is used to monitor front HO2S and catalyst for proper operation. The heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) produces a voltage that varies between 0 V and 1 V. When the air/fuel ratio is lean, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas increases and the front HO2S outputs a low voltage (approximately 0 - 0.4 V).
When the air/fuel ratio is rich, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas decreases and the front HO2S outputs a high voltage (approximately 0.6 - 1 V). The ECM constantly monitors the HO2S and increases or decreases the fuel injection duration by using the HO2S signal, which is called closed-loop fuel control operation.

DTC Description

If the sensor output is over 1.08 V under enable conditions, ECM sets P0132.
(This DTC might be caused by the malfunction of Heater circuit, so, check the heater circuit first.)
