Primary Heated Oxygen Sensor {Primary HO2SI (Sensor 1)
t('96 - 98 Models except Dl6Y5 engine with M/Tl
The Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) detects the oxygen content in the exhaust gas and signals the ECM/PCM. In operation,
the ECM/PCM receives the sjgnals from the sensor and varies the duration during which fuel is injected To stabilize the
sensor,s output, the sensor has an internal heater. The Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) is installed in the exhaust manifold.

Description
By controlling the airlfuel ratio with a Primary Ho2S {Sensor 1) and a secondary HO2S {Sensor 2), the deterioration of the
primary HO2S (Sensor 1) can be evaluated by its feedback period. when the feedback period of the Ho2s exceeds a cer-
tain value during stable driving conditions, the sensor will be judged as deteriorated
when deterioration has been detected during two consecutive trips. the MIL comes on and DTC P0133 or P1163* will be stored'
NOTE: tf DTC P0131, P0132 and/or P0135 are stored at the same time as DTC P0133, troubleshoot those DTCS first' then
troubleshoot DTC P0133. lf DTC Pl 162, P1168 and/or P1169 are stored at the same time as DTC P1163, troubleshoot those
DTCS first, then recheck for DTC Pl163.
