P2197
DTC P2197: Cylinder 2, 3 Heated Oxygen Sensor (front) InactiveCAUTION: If DTC P2197 has been set, TCL related DTC U1120 is also set. After P2197 has been diagnosed, don't forget to erase DTC U1120.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
- The ECM
- If the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) has deteriorated, corrections will be made by the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (rear).
- DTC P2197 becomes stored in memory if a failure is detected in the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front).
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) output voltage does not cross lean/rich criteria (about 0.5 volt) within specified period.
MONITOR EXECUTION
Continuous
MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (Other monitor and Sensor)
Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored in memory for the item monitored below)
- Heated oxygen sensor (front) monitor
- Misfire monitor
Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)

Logic Flow Chart
Check Conditions
- More than 20 seconds or more have passed since the engine starting sequence was completed.
- Engine coolant temperature is 7 °C (45 °F) or more.
- Under the closed loop air/fuel ratio control.
- Intake air temperature is more than -10 °C (14 °F).
Judgement Criterion

Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 21. OBD-II Drive Cycle
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely causes for this code to be set are:)
- Cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) deteriorated.
- ECM failed.
- PCM failed.
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
- MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
- MB991824: V.C.I.
- MB991827: USB Cable
- MB991910: Main Harness A
- MB991316: Test Harness
STEP 1. Check the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front).
1. Disconnect the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) connector B-35 and connect test harness special tool MB991316, to the connector on the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) side.
2. Warm up the engine until engine coolant temperature reaches 80 °C (176 °F) or higher.
3. Rev the engine for 5 minutes or more with the engine speed of 4,500 r/min.
4. Connect a digital voltage meter between terminal No. 2 (black clip) and terminal No. 4 (white clip).
5. While repeatedly revving the engine, measure the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front) output voltage.
Standard value: 0.6 - 1.0 volt
CAUTION:
- Be very careful when connecting the jumper wires; incorrect connection can damage the heated oxygen sensor.
- Be careful the heater can be damaged if a voltage beyond 8 volts is applied to the heated oxygen sensor heater.
NOTE: If the sufficiently high temperature [of approximate 400 °C (752 °F) or more] is not reached although the heated oxygen sensor is normal, the output voltage would be possibly low although the rich air/fuel ratio. Therefore, if the output voltage is low, use a jumper wire to connect the terminal No. 1 (red clip) and the terminal No. 3 (blue clip) of the heated oxygen sensor with the positive terminal and the negative terminal of 8 volts power supply respectively, then check again.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 0.6 and 1.0 volt?
YES: Go to Step 2.
NO: Replace the cylinder 2, 3 heated oxygen sensor (front). Then go to Step 3.
STEP 2. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
1. Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 21. OBD-II Drive Cycle
2. Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P2197 set?
YES: Replace the ECM or the PCM. When the ECM or the PCM is replaced, register the encrypted code. Refer to Encrypted Code Registration Criteria Table. Then go to Step 3.
NO: It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.
STEP 3. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
1. Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 21. OBD-II Drive Cycle
2. Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P2197 set?
YES: Retry the troubleshooting.
NO: The inspection is complete.
