Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation
2001 Toyota Landcruiser V8-4.7L (2UZ-FE)SECTION Description and Operation
Heated Oxygen Sensor
The ECM observes the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor located behind the catalyst to determine whether the catalyst performance has deteriorated.
If the catalyst is functioning normally, the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor located behind the catalyst switches back and forth between rich and lean much more slowly.
When the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor located behind the catalyst alternates flutteringly between rich and lean, it indicates that catalyst performance has deteriorated.
