The ECM determines the temperature by measuring the current flow through the heater. For diagnosis, the ECM monitors the heater current with the engine running. If the ECM detects that the HO2S 1 heater low control circuit current level is not within the calibrated range, DTC P0141 sets for HO2S 2.
Conditions for Running the DTC
P0036
- The engine is cranking or running.
- The system voltage is between 11-18 volts.
P0054
- The ignition is OFF for more than 10 hours.
- The ECT Sensor parameter minus the IAT Sensor parameter is less than 8°C (14°F) at engine start-up.
- The ECT Sensor parameter is between -30 and +45°C (-22 and +133°F) at engine start-up.
- The system voltage is between 9-18 volts.
- This diagnostic runs one time per valid cold start when the above conditions are met.
P0141

Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0036
- The ECM detects that the HO2S 1 heater control circuit status is incorrect for more than 2 seconds.
- This diagnostic runs continuously.
