Code No. P0134: Linear A/F Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected
 
 
 
 
OPERATION
The linear A/F sensor and the engine-ECU are connected by the following 3 lines to detect the air-fuel ratio.
  • The line between the linear A/F sensor and the engine-ECU connector terminal LPFL detects the air-fuel ratio.
  • The auxiliary line between the linear A/F sensor and the engine-ECU connector terminal LSFL detects the air-fuel ratio.
  • The line between the linear A/F sensor and the engine-ECU connector terminal LEFL is connected to earth.
 
 
FUNCTION
  • The engine-ECU effects air/fuel ratio feedback control in accordance with the signals from the linear A/F sensor.
  • If the linear A/F sensor has deteriorated, corrections will be made by the oxygen sensor (rear).
 
 
TROUBLE JUDGEMENT
Check Conditions
  • Battery positive voltage is more than 10 V and is less than 16.5 V.
  • More than 220 seconds have passed since the engine starting sequence was completed.
Judgement Criterion
  • The sensor impedance is be higher than 100 Ω for 10 seconds.
or
  • The sensor impedance is be lower than 50 Ω for 10 seconds.
 
 
FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION
  • Does not control air-fuel ratio closed loop.
 
 
PROBABLE CAUSES
  • Failed linear A/F sensor
  • Open circuit or harness damage in linear A/F sensor circuit or loose connector contact
 
 
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. Check of open circuit, and damage in LSFL line between linear A/F sensor connector and engine-ECU connector.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2.
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
 
STEP 2. Check of open circuit, and damage in LEFL line between linear A/F sensor connector and engine-ECU connector.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 3.
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
 
STEP 3. M.U.T.-IIISE diagnosis code
  • Reconfirmation of diagnosis code.
Is the diagnosis code set?
Replace the linear A/F sensor.
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions ).
