- Inspect all air induction components. Repair as necessary. If air induction components are okay, connect scan tool. See Figure. Start engine and warm to normal operating temperature. Monitor heated oxygen sensor output voltage and short-term fuel trim.
- If scan tester indicates a lean condition (.55 volt or less, +20 trim) or rich condition (.4 volt or more, -20 trim), go to next step. If results are other than shown, see DTC P0130 - HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR CIRCUIT (SENSOR NO. 1) circuit test.
