Code No. P0130: Right Bank Oxygen Sensor (Front) Circuit










OPERATION



  • The sensor signal is inputted to the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 109) from the right bank oxygen sensor (front) output terminal (terminal No. 4).
  • The right bank oxygen sensor (front) (terminal No. 2) is earthed with engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 96).

FUNCTION



  • The right bank oxygen sensor (front) converts the concentration of oxygen in the exhaust emission into a voltage and inputs the signal to the engine-A/T-ECU.
  • When the air-fuel ratio is richer than the theoretical air-fuel ratio, the right bank oxygen sensor (front) outputs a voltage of about 1 V. When it is leaner than the theoretical air-fuel ratio, it outputs a voltage of about 0 V.
  • In response to the signal, the engine-A/T-ECU controls the fuel injection amount so that the air-fuel ratio can be equivalent to the theoretical air-fuel ratio.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT


Check Conditions
  • 3 minutes later from when the engine starts.
  • Right bank oxygen sensor (front) output voltage is less than 0.2 V.
  • The engine coolant temperature is more than approximately 76°C.
  • The engine speed is more than 1,200 r/min.
Judgment Criterion
  • When 5 V is applied to the right bank oxygen sensor (front) output line via register, engine-A/T-ECU interface output voltage is more than 4.5 V for 5 seconds.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Failed right bank oxygen sensor (front)
  • Open/short circuit in right bank oxygen sensor (front) circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-A/T-ECU
