DTC P0133:00

DTC P0153:00

P0133:00: A/F sensor (RH) circuit slow response

P0153:00: A/F sensor (LH) circuit slow response

DETECTION CONDITION
•  P0133:00 indicates slow response of A/F sensor (RH) circuit
•  P0153:00 indicates slow response of A/F sensor (LH) circuit
•  The PCM monitors oxygen sensor response time by commanding a calibrated fuel control routine. This routine sets the air fuel ratio to a calibrated limit to produce a predictable oxygen sensor signal amplitude. For vehicles with universal heated oxygen sensors (HO2S), the test fails if the oxygen sensor signal does not reach the predicted amplitude within a predetermined response time. For vehicles with heated oxygen sensors (HO2S), the test fails when the oxygen sensor amplitude is less than the predicted minimum amplitude limit.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Contaminated A/F sensor
•  Incorrect fueling
•  MAF sensor malfunction
•  Exhaust leaks
•  Open or short circuit between PCM and A/F sensor
•  Inlet air leaks
•  Deteriorating A/F sensor
•  A/F sensor heater malfunction
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED
•  Has FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related Service Information availability.
•  Is any related Service Information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available Service Information.
•  If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
3
PERFORM KOER SELF-TEST
•  Verify that the engine is at normal operating temperature.
•  Perform the KOER self-test.
•  Are any DTCs present other than P0133:00 or P0153:00?
Yes
Go to the appropriate DTC troubleshooting.
No
Go to the next step.
4
INSPECT FOR SOURCE OF POTENTIAL A/F SENSOR CONTAMINATION
•  Investigate the following items as potential sources of A/F sensor contamination:
―  Use of unapproved silicon sealers
―  Fuel contaminated by silicon additives
―  Excessive oil consumption
―  Glycol leaking internally in the engine
―  Lead-contaminated fuel
―  Short drive cycles in cold weather
―  Use of unapproved cleaning agents
•  Is a concern present?
Yes
Repair the source of the contamination. Change the engine oil and oil filter. Then go to Step 6.
No
Go to the next step.
5
VERIFY A/F SENSOR RESPONSE TEST RESULTS
•  Access the DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS for the O2S11 and O2S21
•  Is the indicated value greater than the minimum threshold?
Yes
Unable to duplicate or identify the concern at this time.
No
Replace the suspect A/F sensor.
Then go to the next step.
6
VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P0133:00, P0153:00 HAS BEEN COMPLETED
•  Verify that all disconnected connectors are reconnected.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Perform the OBD DRIVE MODE up to HO2S (Step 5).
•  Retrieve DTCs using the M-MDS.
•  Is the PENDING CODE for this DTC present?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
7
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
•  Perform the “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE”.
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Troubleshooting completed.
