Circuit/System Description

Heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) are used for fuel control and post-catalyst monitoring. The heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content in the exhaust stream. The heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 must reach operating temperature to provide an accurate voltage signal. A heating element inside the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 minimises the time required for the sensor to reach operating temperature. Voltage is provided to the heater by an ignition voltage circuit through a fuse. With the engine running, ground is provided to the heater by the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 heater low control circuit, through a low side driver within the engine control module (ECM). The ECM uses pulse-width modulation (PWM) to control the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 heater operation to maintain a specific heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 operating temperature range.

Conditions for Running the DTC

P0030 00, P0031 00, and P0030 02

    • The ignition is ON.
    • The ignition signal parameter is more than 9 V.
    • DTC P0030 00, P0031 00, and P0032 00 run continuously when the above conditions are met for 1 s.

P0135 00

    • DTCs P0030 00, P0031 00, P0032 00, are not set.
    • The ignition is ON.
    • The ignition signal parameter is more than 9 V.
    • DTC P0135 00 runs continuously.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0030 00, P0031 00, and P0032 00

    • The ECM detects that the difference between the predicted voltage and the actual voltage exceeds a calibrated limit.
    • DTCs P0030 00, P0031 00, and P0032 00 set when the above condition is met.

P0135 00

    • The ECM detects that the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 heater resistance is more than 1200 Ω.
    • DTC P0141 00 sets within 30 s during the heater current test when the above condition is met.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTC P0030 00, P0031 00, P0032 00, P0135 00 are Type B DTCs.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTC P0030 00, P0031 00, P0032 00, P0135 00 are Type B DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification

  1. Clear the DTCs with a scan tool.
  2. Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running and setting the DTCs. The DTCs should not set.

Circuit/System Testing

You must perform the circuit/system verification before proceeding with circuit/system testing.

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1.
  2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 ignition Circuit terminal 3 and ground.
  3. If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and its fuse is open, test all components connected to the fuse and replace as necessary.
  4. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 control circuit terminal 1 and the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 ignition circuit terminal 3.
  5. If the test lamp illuminates, test the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
  6. Engine running, leave the test lamp connected from the previous step. The lamp should flash or be ON steady.
  7. If the test lamp is not ON steady or flashing, test the B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
  8. If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate B52A Heated Oxygen Sensor 1.
