• The all range air/fuel ratio sensor is a limited current type sensor, and can detect the oxygen concentration (air/fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture) in the exhaust gas in all ranges, from lean to rich.
• A heater is built into the sensor to facilitate the activation of the A/F sensor at engine startup (when the exhaust gas temperature is low).
• The all range air/fuel ratio sensor converts the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas into a current value, and sends the value to the PCM.
• The PCM calculates the λ (lambda) value of the air-fuel mixture based on the received current value.
