HINT:
When a malfunction is not confirmed by a DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) check and the cause of problem cannot be identified through a basic inspection, troubleshoot according to the priority order indicated in the table below.


Air-fuel ratio (a/f) and heated oxygen (ho2)
sensor heater monitors (front a/f and rear ho2 sensor
type)
Terminals of ecmEngine Coolant Temperature / Intake Air Temperature Correlation
DESCRIPTION
The ECM calculates the difference between the readings of the coolant
temperature sensor and intake air
temperature sensor. If the difference is greater than 20°C (68°F), the ECM will
judge this as a malfunction
and will set this DTC.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses the sensors mounted in front of and behind the three-way
catalyst (TWC) to monitor its
efficiency. The first sensor, an Air Fuel ratio ...
Data list / active test
1. READ DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester to read the Data List allows
the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and
other items to be read without removing any parts. This
non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because
intermittent conditions or signals may be disco ...
