the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for determining
whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel ratio lean or rich, etc.

DTC P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold
(Except California Spec.)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ECM compares the waveform of the oxygen sensor located before the catalyst with the waveform of
the oxygen sensor located after the catalyst to determine whether or not catalyst performance has deterio-
rated.
Air±fuel ratio feedback compensation keeps the waveform of the oxygen sensor before the catalyst repeat-
edly changing back and forth from rich to lean.
If the catalyst is functioning normally, the waveform of the oxygen sensor after the catalyst switches back
and forth between rich and lean much more slowly than the waveform of the oxygen sensor before the cata-
lyst.
But when both waveforms change at a similar rate, it indicates that catalyst performance has deteriorated.


DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0420
After engine and catalyst are warmed up, and while vehicle is
driven within set vehicle and engine speed range, waveforms
of heated oxygen sensors (bank 1 sensor 1, 2) have the same
amplitude

(a) Connect the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC3, or connect the probe of the oscilloscope between
terminals OXR1, OXL1, OXS and E1 of the ECM connector.
(b) Start engine and warm it up with all accessories switched OFF until water temp. is stable.
(c) Race the engine at 2,500 ~ 3,000 rpm for about 3 min.
(d) After confirming that the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor, bank 1, 2 sensor 1 (OXR1, OXL1),
oscillate around 0.5 V during feedback to the ECM, check the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor,
bank 1 sensor 2 (OXS).
HINT:
If there is a malfunction in the system, the waveform of the
heated oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 2 (OXS), is almost the
same as that of the heated oxygen sensor, bank 1, 2 sensor 1
(OXR1, OXL1), on the left.
There are some cases where, even though a malfunction
exists, the MIL may either light up or not light up.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held theater or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame re-
cords the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for determin-
ing whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel ratio lean or rich,
etc. at the time of the malfunction.
