DTC Troubleshooting: P0137 (63)

DTC P0137: Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) Circuit Low Voltage Turn the ignition switch ON (II). Clear the DTC with the HDS. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm (min −1 ) without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle. Check the HO2S S2 in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Does the voltage stay at 0.29 V or less?
YES | - | Go to Step 5 .
NO | - | Go to Step 9 .
Turn the ignition switch OFF. Disconnect the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) 4P connector. Turn the ignition switch ON (II). Check the HO2S S2 in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Does the voltage stay at 0.29 V or less?
YES | - | Go to Step 11 .
NO | - | Go to Step 15 .
Test-drive under these conditions: Engine coolant temperature above 70 °C (158 °F) A/T in D position (M/T in 4th gear) Engine speed at 2,000−3,000 rpm (min −1 ) Drive about 10 minutes, then decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0137 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. Does the screen indicate FAILED?
YES | - | Go to Step 16 .
NO | - | If the screen indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the ECM/PCM. If the screen indicates EXECUTING, keep driving until a result comes on. If the screen indicates OUT OF CONDITION, go to Step 9 and recheck.
Turn the ignition switch OFF. Jump the SCS line with the HDS. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector E (31P). Check for continuity between Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) 4P connector terminal No. 2 and body ground. Is there continuity?
YES | - | Repair short in the wire between the ECM/PCM (E20) and the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2), then go to Step 17 .
NO | - | Go to Step 25 .
Turn the ignition switch OFF. Replace the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2). Reconncet all connectors. Turn the ignition switch ON (II). Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm (min −1 ) without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle. Test-drive under these conditions: Engine coolant temperature above 70 °C (158 °F) A/T in D position (M/T in 4th gear) Engine speed at 2,000−3,000 rpm (min −1 ) Drive about 10 minutes, then decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. Are any Temporary DTCs or DTCs indicated?
YES | - | If DTC P0137 is indicated, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the ECM/PCM, then go to Step 1 . If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
NO | - | Go to Step 24 .
Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0137 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES | - | Troubleshooting is complete.■
NO | - | If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the ECM/PCM, then go to Step 1 . If the screen indicates EXECUTING, keep driving until a result comes on. If the screen indicates OUT OF CONDITION, go to Step 21 and recheck.
Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm (min −1 ) without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle. Test-drive under these conditions: Engine coolant temperature above 70 °C (158 °F) A/T in D position (M/T in 4th gear) Engine speed at 2,000−3,000 rpm (min −1 ) Drive about 10 minutes, then decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. Are any Temporary DTCs or DTCs indicated?
YES | - | If DTC P0137 is indicated, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the ECM/PCM, then go Step 1 . If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
NO | - | If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM. ■
