INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
If DTC P0105 and/or P0106 and P0402 are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting of DTC
P0105 first.
If DTC P0401 and P0402 are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting of DTC P0402 first.

DTC P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold
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 Detection ConditionTrouble Area
P0420
After the engine and the catalyst are warmed up, and while
vehicle is driven within the set vehicle and engine speed
range, the waveforms of the oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 1)
and heated oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 2) have the same
amplitude (2 trip detection logic)

CONFIRMATION ENGINE RACING PATTERN
(a) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester to the DLC3, or connect the probe of the oscilloscope between
terminals OX1, OX2 and E1 of ECM.
(b) Start engine and warm it up with all accessories switched OFF until engine coolant temperature is
stable.
(c) Race the engine at 2,500 - 3,000 rpm for about 3 minutes.
(d) After confirming that the waveform of the oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 1 (OX1), oscillate around 0.5
V during feedback to the ECM, check the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 2
(OX2).
HINT:
If there is a malfunction in the system, the waveform of the
heated oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 2 (OX2), is almost the
same as that of the oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 1 (OX1), on
the left.
There are some cases where, even though a malfunction ex-
ists, the MIL may either light up or not light up.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Are there any other codes (besides DTC P0420) being output?
YES Go to relevant DTC chart.
NO
2 Check heated oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 2) (See page DI-44).
