DTC (PGM-FI)

  1. Problem verification

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

    -3. Start the engine, and let it idle without load (in P or N) for at least 1 minute.

    -4. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

    P0154 Front A/F Sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) Heater System Malfunction      

    Is DTC P0134 and/or P0154* indicated?

    YES 

    The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

    NO 

    Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1), the PGM-FI subrelay, and the PCM.

  2. Open wire check (VSB1 (VSB2)* line):

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

    -3. Disconnect the following connectors.

    A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 6P connector
    PCM connector C (51P)

    -4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
      PCM connector C (51P): disconnected
      A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 6P connector: disconnected
    Test circuit VSB1 (VSB2)*
    Test point 1 Rear A/F sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) 6P connector No. 6 (LT GRN)
      Front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) 6P connector No. 6 (WHT)*
    Test point 2 PCM connector C (51P) No. 25 (LT GRN)
      PCM connector C (51P) No. 28 (WHT)*

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The VSB1 (VSB2)* wire is OK. Go to step 3.

    NO 

    Repair an open in the VSB1 (VSB2)* wire between the PCM (C25 (C28)*) and the A/F sensor (Sensor 1), then do the repair verification.

  3. PCM output voltage check

    -1. Reconnect the following connector.

    PCM connector C (51P)

    -2. Exit the SCS mode with the HDS.

    -3. Start the engine, and let it idle without load (in P or N) for at least 1 minute.

    -4. Measure the voltage between test point 1 and 2.

    Test condition Running
      PCM connector C (51P): connected
      A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 6P connector: disconnected
    Test circuit VSB1 (VSB2)*
    Test point 1 Rear A/F sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) 6P connector No. 6 (LT GRN)
      Front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) 6P connector No. 6 (WHT)*
    Test point 2 Body ground

    Is there about 0.2 V or less?

    YES 

    Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM , then do the repair verification.

    NO 

    Replace the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) , then do the repair verification.

  4. Repair verification (OBD STATUS check)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Reconnect all connectors.

    -3. Exit the SCS mode with the HDS.

    -4. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -5. Reset the PCM with the HDS .

    Reset PCM

    -6. Do the PCM idle learn procedure.

    -7. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0134 and/or P0154* in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

    DTC Description OBD STATUS
    P0134 Rear A/F Sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) Heater System Malfunction  
    P0154 Front A/F Sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) Heater System Malfunction  

    DTC (PGM-FI)

    Does the HDS indicate PASSED, FAILED, or NOT COMPLETED?

    PASSED (P0134)

    Troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM . If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

    PASSED (P0154)

    Troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM . If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

    FAILED (P0134)

    Go to step 1 and recheck. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM , then check the OBD STATUS again.

    FAILED (P0154)

    Go to step 1 and recheck. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM , then check the OBD STATUS again.

    NOT COMPLETED

    Keep idling until a result comes on.
