DTC P2A01:00 DTC P2A04:00 |
P2A01:00: HO2S (RH) circuit range/performance P2A04:00: HO2S (LH) circuit range/performance |
---|---|
DETECTION CONDITION
|
• P2A01:00 indicates that HO2S (RH) circuit range/performance
• P2A04:00 indicates that HO2S (LH) circuit range/performance
• The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) for an out of range low voltage concern. This DTC sets if the HO2S voltage is out of range low for a calibrated period of time.
|
POSSIBLE CAUSE
|
• Crossed HO2S and SIGRTN circuits
• Contaminated or damaged HO2S
• Deteriorating HO2S
• Corrosion
• Incorrect harness connections
• P2A01:00:
• P2A04:00:
• 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
|
VISUALLY INSPECT HO2S HARNESS
• Turn the ignition switch off.
• Disconnect the suspect HO2S connector.
• Visually inspect suspect HO2S for:
• Is a concern present?
|
Yes
|
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 11.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
4
|
CHECK FOR UNMETERED AIR LEAKS
• Carefully inspect the following areas for potential air leaks:
• Is a concern present?
|
Yes
|
Repair the source of the air leak.
Go to Step 11.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
5
|
INSPECT FOR SOURCE OF POTENTIAL HO2S CONTAMINATION
• Investigate the following items as potential sources of HO2S contamination:
• Is a concern present?
|
Yes
|
Repair the source of the contamination.
Change the engine oil and oil filter.
Go to Step 11.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
6
|
INSPECT EXHAUST SYSTEM AND FUEL SELECTION CONCERNS
• Inspect the suspect exhaust system for the following:
• Verify with the customer that flex fuel is not being used on a non-flex fuel vehicle.
• Is a concern present?
|
Yes
|
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 11.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
7
|
CHECK HO2S CIRCUIT(S) FOR OPEN IN HARNESS
• Suspect HO2S connector is disconnected.
• Turn the ignition switch off.
• Disconnect the PCM connector.
• Check the connector (both halves) for any water contamination and replace if necessary.
• Measure the resistance between the following terminals (wiring harness-side):
• Is the resistance less than 5 ohm?
|
Yes
|
Go to the next step.
|
No
|
Repair for open circuit, then go to Step 11.
|
||
8
|
CHECK HO2S CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
• Suspect HO2S and PCM connectors are disconnected.
• Measure the resistance between the following suspect HO2S terminals:
• Is the resistance greater than 10 kilohms?
|
Yes
|
Go to the next step.
|
No
|
Repair for short circuit, then go to Step 11.
|
||
9
|
CHECK HO2S CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO VOLTAGE
• Suspect HO2S and PCM connectors are disconnected.
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (engine off).
• Measure the voltage between the following suspect HO2S terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground:
• Is there any voltage?
|
Yes
|
Repair for short circuit, then go to Step 11.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
10
|
CHECK HO2S CIRCUIT CONTINUITY
• Suspect HO2S and PCM connectors are disconnected.
• Turn the ignition switch off.
• Reconnect the PCM connector.
• Connect a 5 A fused jumper wire between suspect HO2S terminals (wiring harness-side) B and D
• Start the engine and run it at idle.
• Access the PCM and monitor the suspect HO2S signal PID.
• Is the voltage greater than 1 V?
|
Yes
|
Replace the HO2S, then go to the next step.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
(The system is operating normal at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.)

|
VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P2A01:00, P2A04:00 HAS BEEN COMPLETED
• Verify that all disconnected connectors are reconnected.
• Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
• Perform the KOEO or KOER self-test.
• 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.
