1.
Problem verification:

Problem verification
?1.
Press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.

?2.
Clear the DTC with the HDS.


?3.
Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

?4.
Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P2237 and/or P2240* indicated?

     
YES
     
     
     
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
     
NO
     
     
     
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/F sensor (Sensor 1) and the PCM.?
2.
Open wire check (IPB1 line (IPB2 line)*):

Open wire check (IPB1 line (IPB2 line)*)
?1.
Press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.

?2.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS.


?3.
Disconnect the following connectors.

?4.
Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
OFF mode
 
PCM connector C (51P): disconnected
 
A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 8P connector: disconnected
Test circuit
IPB1 (IPB2)*
Test point 1
Rear A/F sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) 6P connector No. 2 (GRN)
 
Front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) 6P connector No. 2 (PUR)*
Test point 2
PCM connector C (51P) No. 37 (GRN)
 
PCM connector C (51P) No. 38 (PUR)*


Is there continuity?

     
YES
     
     
     
The IPB1 (IPB2)* wire is OK. Go to step 3.
     
NO
     
     
     
Repair an open in the IPB1 (IPB2)* wire between the PCM (C37 (C38)*) and the A/F sensor (Sensor 1), then do the repair verification.
3.
PCM internal circuit check:

PCM internal circuit check
?1.
Exit the SCS mode with the HDS.


?2.
Reconnect PCM connector C (51P).

?3.
Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

?4.
Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Engine running
 
A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 8P connector: disconnected

Test point 1
Rear A/F sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 1) 8P connector No. 2 (GRN)
 
Front A/F sensor (Bank 2, Sensor 1) 8P connector No. 2 (PUR)*
Test point 2
Body ground


Is there about 0.2 V or less?

     
YES
     
     
     
Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM, then do the repair verification.
     
NO
     
     
     
The PCM internal circuit is OK. Replace the A/F sensor (Sensor 1), then do the repair verification.
Repair verification (OBD STATUS check):

?1.
Reconnect all connectors.

?2.
Exit the SCS mode with the HDS.


?3.
Press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.

?4.
Reset the PCM with the HDS.


?5.
Do the PCM idle learn procedure.

?6.
Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2237 and/or P2240* in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
