DTC P0131/P0132 Heated Oxygen (HO
Circuit Description
The HO sensor voltage varies from about 1.0
2
volt if the exhaust is rich down to about 0.1 volt
if the exhaust is lean.
The sensor behaves like an open circuit and
produces no voltage when the exhaust tem-
perature is below 600°F (360°C). An open sen-
sor circuit or cold sensor causes an open loop
operation.
The sensor heater provides for faster sensor
warm-up. This allows the sensor to become
active in a shorter period of time and remain
active during a long extended idle.
An active DTC P0131 indicates that the sensor
has developed an open circuit and is operat-
ing in Open Loop mode. DTC P0132 indicates
circuit resistance is low and voltage being
returned to the ECM is too high.
