Fault Conditions

P1142

O2S Heater Circuit. Current too High, Sensor 2.







Fault symptoms
- CHECK ENGINE.

On-Board Diagnostics

Type of diagnosis:
- Continuous. But interrupted when fault criteria fulfilled and will not restart until next driving cycle.

Enable criteria:
- General conditions for this trouble code: Atmospheric pressure must exceed 72 kPa and the engine coolant and intake air temperature must exceed -7 degree C.
- Test 1: Engine running. Main relay voltage exceeding 10 V. Pre-heating active.
- Test 2: Engine running. Main relay voltage exceeding 10 V. Pre-heating active for more than 60 s.

Fault criteria:
- Test 1: Output voltage exceeding 2 V for more than 5 s.
- Test 2: Current exceeding 2300 mA for more than 5 s.

Dependents:
- None.

System reaction to a fault:
- Oxygen sensor affect on closed loop zeroed.

OK report:
- Enable criteria fulfilled. Fault criteria for P1141 or P1142 not fulfilled within 60 s.

Fault handling: (For more information, Fault Handling III, Other Emission-Related Components and Function)

- Type III.

Diagnostic help
Fault diagnosis concerns an electrical fault in connecting leads or in the sensor.

Functions in the diagnostic tool related to the fault:
- Diagnostic status for the diagnosis.
- Activate output for pre-heating.
- Oxygen sensor pre-heating current, unit mA.

Checking the wiring
Jiggle the wiring harness at several points and in different directions to detect intermittent breaks and short circuits. Observe the multimeter, diagnostic tool or test lamp during the check.
