Inspection Procedure 34: Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor (Lambda sensor) System <Vehicle with DPF>












OPERATION



  • Power is supplied to the heater power terminal (terminal No. 2) of the air/fuel ratio sensor connector from the engine control relay (terminal No. 2).
  • The heater (terminal No. 5) of the air/fuel ratio sensor connector is controlled by the power transistor in the engine-ECU (terminal No. 89).
  • The oxygen concentration signal is inputted to the engine-ECU (terminal No. 71) from the air/fuel ratio sensor output terminal (terminal No. 1).
  • The power voltage is earthed to the engine-ECU (terminal No. 136) from the air/fuel ratio sensor (terminal No. 3).
  • The pump current is inputted to the engine-ECU (terminal No. 114) from the air/fuel ratio sensor output terminal (terminal No. 6).
  • The Lambda value signal is inputted to the engine-ECU (terminal No. 92) from the air/fuel ratio sensor output terminal (terminal No. 4).

FUNCTION



  • The air/fuel ratio sensor is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas.
  • The engine-ECU calculates the quantity and start of extended injection based on this output signal.
  • Air/fuel ratio sensor heater control the current applied to the air/fuel ratio sensor heater circuit in accordance with signals from the engine-ECU.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Failed air/fuel ratio sensor heater
  • Open/short circuit or harness damage in air/fuel ratio sensor circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-ECU
