When HO2S reaches operating temperature, coolant temperature reaches a preset temperature and a specific period of time has passed since engine start-up, PCM operates in closed loop mode. In closed loop mode, PCM controls air/fuel ratio based upon HO2S signals (in addition to other input parameters) to maintain as close to a 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio as possible. If HO2S cools off (due to excessive idling) or a fault occurs in HO2S circuit, vehicle will re-enter open loop mode.
