Code No. P0032: Oxygen Sensor (front) Heater Circuit High Input <EURO2>
OPERATION
Power is supplied to the heater power terminal of the oxygen sensor (front) connector from the engine control relay.
The heater of the oxygen sensor (front) connector is controlled by the power transistor in the engine-ECU connector terminal OHFL.
FUNCTION
The power supply to the oxygen sensor (front) heater is controlled by the ON/OFF control of the power transistor in the engine-ECU.
Heating the oxygen sensor (front) heater enables the oxygen sensor (front) to provide good response even when the exhaust emission temperature is low.
TROUBLE JUDGEMENT
Check Conditions
More than 2 seconds have passed since the engine starting sequence was completed.
While the oxygen sensor (front) heater is on.
Battery positive voltage is more than 11 V and is less than 16.5 V.
Judgement Criterion
The oxygen sensor (front) heater current is more than 10.5 A for 2 seconds.
FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION
None
PROBABLE CAUSES
Failed oxygen sensor (front) heater
Failed engine-ECU
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. Check oxygen sensor (front) itself.
Oxygen sensor (front) check (Refer to
).
Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2.
Replace the oxygen sensor (front).
STEP 2. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code
Reconfirmation of diagnosis code.
Q. Is diagnosis code set?
Replace the engine-ECU.
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions).
