MPI – Troubleshooting
13-43
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 31 <EVOLUTION-V, EVOLUTION-VI>
Oxygen sensor system
Probable cause
When CO or HC concentration is too high, the malfunction of the parts shown at
right may be the cause.
D The oxygen sensor detects the density of oxygen in exhaust gas and inputs it
to the engine-ECU after converting into a voltage signal.
D The engine-ECU controls the fuel injection amount based on this signal such that
the stoichiometric air/fuel mixture ratio can be obtained.
D Malfunction of oxygen sensor
D Improper connector contact, open or short-circuited
harness wire
D Malfunction of engine-ECU
OK
Replace the engine-ECU.
NG
Check the harness wire between oxygen sensor, engine-ECU,
and repair if necessary.
OK
Check trouble symptom.
NG
Check the harness wire between oxygen sensor and engine-ECU,
and repair if necessary.
OK
Check trouble symptom.
OK
Check trouble symptom.
NG
Check the harness wire between
engine-ECU and oxygen sensor.
NG
Repair
OK
Check the following connector: B-61
NG
Repair
OK
NG
Measure at the engine-ECU connector B-61.
D Disconnect the connector, and measure at the harness side.
D Voltage between 60 and earth
(Ignition switch: ON)
OK: System voltage
Check the following connector: A-63
NG
Repair
1. NG
Check the harness wire between oxygen sensor and control relay,
and repair if necessary.
OK
2. NG
Measure at the oxygen sensor connector A-63.
D Disconnect the connector, and measure at the harness side.
1. Voltage between 1 and earth
(Ignition switch: ON)
OK: System voltage
2. Continuity between 2 and earth
OK: Continuity
Check the following connector: B-62
NG
Repair
Check the oxygen sensor. (Refer to P.13-32)*
NG
Replace
