DTC P0031 HO2S HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW (BANK 1 SENSOR 1)

DTC P0031 HO2S HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW (BANK 1 SENSOR 1)

OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

Detect the open or short circuit of heater.

The heater conducts the duty control. The output terminal voltage at ON becomes 0 V, and the output terminal voltage at OFF becomes battery voltage.

Judge NG when the terminal voltage remains to be Low.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION


(A)

Battery voltage

(C)

128 milliseconds

(B)

Front oxygen (A/F) sensor heater output voltage

(D)

Low abnormality



ENABLE CONDITION

Secondary Parameters Enable Conditions
Battery voltage

≥ 10.9 V



GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE

Always perform diagnosis continuously.

DIAGNOSTIC METHOD

Abnormality Judgment

Judge NG when the continuous time of completing the malfunction criteria below becomes more than 1 second (8 cycles).

Judgment Value

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
Output voltage level

Low

Front oxygen (A/F) sensor heater control duty

< 87.5%



Time Needed for Diagnosis: 1 second

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates as soon as malfunction occurs.

Normality Judgment

Judge OK and clear the NG when all the malfunction criteria below are completed.

Judgment Value

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
Output voltage level

High



DTC CLEAR CONDITION


When the OK idling cycle was completed 40 times in a row

When “Clear Memory” was performed


MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CLEAR CONDITION


When the OK driving cycle was completed 3 times in a row

When “Clear Memory” was performed


FAIL SAFE


Front oxygen (A/F) sensor heater control: Not allowed to turn on the heater.

A/F main learning: Not allowed to calculate the A/F main learning compensation factor.

A/F sub learning: Not allowed to calculate the A/F sub learning compensation factor.

Compensation when starting the engine at high temperature: Make the MIN value to be 0 from 0.06 normally.

Purge control: Not allowed to purge.


ECM OPERATING AT DTC SETTING
