Conditioning For Sensor Testing

Perform the operation with the engine speeds and time durations described below prior to checking the waveforms of the A/F and HO2 sensors. This is performed in order to heat the sensors sufficiently to obtain the appropriate inspection results.

Connect Techstream to the DLC3 (Procedure "A").
Start the engine and warm it up with all the accessories switched OFF, until the engine coolant temperature stabilizes (Procedure "B").
Run the engine at engine speed of between 2500 RPM and 3000 RPM for at least 3 minutes (Procedure "C").
While running the engine at 3000 RPM for 2 seconds and 2000 RPM for 2 seconds, check the waveforms of the A/F and HO2 sensors using the tester or scan tool (Procedure "D").

NOTE:

The Air-Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor has an output delay of a few seconds and the Heated Oxygen (HO2) sensor has a maximum output delay of approximately 20 seconds.

Following the Control the Injection Volume for A/F Sensor procedure enables technicians to check and graph the output voltages of both the A/F and HO2 sensors.
To display the graph, enter the following menus on the tester: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Injection Volume for A/F Sensor / A/F Control System / AFS Voltage B1S1 or AFS Voltage B2S1 and O2S B2S1 or O2S B2S2. Then press the graph button on the Data List View.
