OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
Refer to Diagnostic Function OBD-II Drive Cycle Pattern 12. OBD-II Drive Cycle
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely causes for this code to be set are)
- Cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front) deteriorated.
- Harness damage in cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front) output line.
- Cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (rear) deteriorated.
NOTE: When the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front) begins to deteriorate, the heated oxygen sensor output voltage will deviate from the voltage when the sensor was new (normally 0.5 volt at stoichiometric ratio). This deviation will be corrected by the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (rear).
If the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (rear) responds poorly because it has deteriorated, it will improperly correct the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front). Thus, even when closed loop control is being effected, the fluctuation of the cylinder 1, 4 heated oxygen sensor (front) output voltage decreases, without intersecting with 0.5 volt. As a result, there is a possibility of DTC P0134 becoming registered.
- Open circuit in cylinder 1, 4 injector.
- Harness damage in cylinder 1, 4 injector circuit.
- Connector damage.
- ECM failed.
- PCM failed.
- Exhaust leak.
- Air drawn in from gaps in gasket, seals, etc.
- Incorrect fuel pressure.
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. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item AD: Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear).
CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
1. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
2. Start the engine and run at idle.
3. Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item AD, Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear).
- Warming up the engine. When the engine is revved, the output voltage should repeat 0 volt and 0.6 to 1.0 volt alternately.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?
YES: Go to Step 2.
NO: Refer to DTC P0137 Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear) Circuit Low Voltage, DTC P0138 Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear) Circuit High Voltage, DTC P0139 Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear) Circuit Slow Response, P0140 Cylinder 1, 4 Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear) Circuit No Activity Detected.

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 1, 4 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.
