Primary Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) lsensor 1l
The Heated Oxygen Sensor {HO2S) detects the oxygen content in the exhaust gas and signals the ECM. In operation, theECM receives the signals from the sensor and varies the duration during which fuel is iniected. To stabilize the sensor,soutput, the sensor has an internal heater and the sensor element is coated with a catalyst. The HO2S is installed in TWChousing (818C'1, 818C5 engines) or exhaust pipe B {81881 engine).

The scan tool indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0133: A slow response problem in the Primary
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO25) (Sensor 1) circuit.
Description
By controlling the airlfuel ratio with a Primary HO2S (Sensor 'l) and a Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2), the deterioration of the
primary HO2S {Sensor 1) can be evaluated by its teedback period. When the feedback period of the HO2S exceeds a cer-
lain 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 will be stored
NOTE: ll DTC P013't, P0132 and/or P0'135 are stored at the same time as DTC P0133, troubleshoot those DTCS first, then

Random Misfire
1T0-500 1 a nd Fo-30ittrrousFF0304-lThB scan tool indicates Diagnostic Trouble Code {DTC) P0300 and some of
P0301 - P0304: Random misfire.
Doscription
Misfir; detection is accomplished by monitoring the crankshaft speed with the crankshaft speed fluciuation sensor which
is attached to the crankshsft.
lf misfiring strong enough to damage the catalyst is detected, the MIL will blink during iho time of its occurrence, and DTC
p0300 and some of DTCS p0301 through P0304 will be stor€d. Then, after misfire has ceased, the MIL will come on.
lf misfiring that increases emissions is detected during two consecutive driving cycles, the MIL will come on, and DTC
PO3O0 and some ot DTCS P0301 through P0304 will be stored
NOTE: lJ some of the DTCS listed below are stored at the same time as a misfire DTC, troubleshoot those DTCS first. then
troubleshoot the misfire DTC.
P0171, P0172: Fuel metering
P0505: ldle Control SYstem
P1361, P1362: TDC sensor
P1381. P1382: CYP sensor
P1508: IAC valve
Possible Cause
. Fuel pump insufficient fuel pressure. amount of flow
. Fuel line clogging, blockage, leakage
. Fuel {ilter clogging
a Fuel pressure regulator stuck open
. Distributormallunction
o lgnition coil wire open, leakage
. lgnition control module malfunction
. Valves carbon deposit
a Compression low
. IAC valve malfunction
. Fast idle thermo valve malfunction
o Fuel does not meet Owner's Manual spec., lackotfu€l
. VTEC system malfunction
Troubleshooting
By test-driving, determine the conditions during which misfire occurs. Depending on these conditions, test in the order
