P0132

DTC P0132: Heated Oxygen Sensor Circuit High Voltage (sensor 1)

Heated Oxygen Sensor (front) Circuit Part 1:




Heated Oxygen Sensor (front) Circuit Part 2:






CIRCUIT OPERATION
- A voltage corresponding to the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas is sent to the ECM (terminal 76) or PCM (terminal 71) from the output terminal (terminal 4) of the heated oxygen sensor (front).
- Terminal 2 of the heated oxygen sensor (front) is grounded with ECM (terminal 92) or PCM (terminal 57)
.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
- The heated oxygen sensor (front) detects the concentration of oxygen in the exhaust gas; it converts those data to voltage, and inputs the resulting signals to the ECM or PCM
.
- When the heated oxygen sensor (front) begins to deteriorate, the heated oxygen sensor signal response becomes poor.
- The ECM or PCM
forcibly varies the air/fuel mixture to make it leaner and richer, and checks the response speed of the heated oxygen sensor (front). In addition, the ECM or PCM also checks for an open circuit in the heated oxygen sensor (front) output line.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions
- 2 seconds or more have passed since the starting sequence was completed.

Judgment Criteria
- Heated oxygen sensor (front) output voltage has continued to be 1.2 volts or higher for 2 seconds.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely causes for this code to be set are:)
- Heated oxygen sensor (front) deteriorated.
- Short circuit in heated oxygen sensor (front) output line.
- ECM failed.
- PCM failed.


DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:
- MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)







STEP 1. Check connector B-17 at heated oxygen sensor (front) and connector C-60 at ECM or connector C-57 at PCM
for damage.

Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES: Go to Step 2.

NO: Repair or replace it. Refer to Harness Connector Inspection. Then go to Step 3.







STEP 2. Check for short circuit to power supply between heated oxygen sensor (front) connector B-17 (terminal 4) and ECM connector C-60 (terminal 76) or PCM connector C-57 (terminal 71)
.

Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES: Replace the ECM or PCM. Then go to Step 3.

NO: Repair it. Then go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.

1. Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Procedure 6 - Other Monitor.
2. Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Q: Is the DTC P0132 is output?

YES: Retry the troubleshooting.

NO: The inspection is complete.
