P0138
DTC P0138: Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) Circuit High Voltage1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
3. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm with no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
4. Check the HO2S S2 in the DATA LIST with the HDS.
Does the voltage stay at 0.75 V or higher?
YES - Go to step 7.
NO - Go to step 5.
5. Test-drive under the following conditions.
- Engine coolant temperature more than 158 °F (70 °C)
- A/T in D position (M/T in 5th gear)
- Engine speed at 2,000 - 3,000 rpm.
- Drive about 10 minutes, then decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds.
6. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0138 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate FAILED?
YES - Go to step 19.
NO - If the screen indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. If the screen indicates EXECUTING, keep driving until a result comes on. If the screen indicates Out of CONDITION, go to step 5 and recheck.
7. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
8. Disconnect the Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) 4P connector.
9. Connect Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) 4P connector terminals No.1 and No.2 with a jumper wire.
10. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
11. Check the HO2S S2 in the DATA LIST with the HDS.
Does the voltage stay at 0.75 V or higher?
YES - Go to step 12.
NO - Go to step 19.
12. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
13. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
14. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector E (31P).
15. Check for continuity between ECM/PCM connector terminals E4 and E20.
Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 28.
NO - Go to step 16.
16. Remove the jumper wire from the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) 4P connector.
17. Connect secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) 4P connector terminal No.2 to body ground with a jumper wire.
18. Check for continuity between ECM/PCM connector terminal E20 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (E4) and the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2), then go to step 21.
NO - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (E20) and the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2), then go to step 21.
19. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
20. Replace the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2).
21. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
22. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
23. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure.
24. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm with no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
25. Test-drive under the following conditions.
- Engine coolant temperature more than 158 °F (70 °C)
- A/T in D position (M/T in 5th gear)
- Engine speed at 2,000 - 3,000 rpm.
- Drive about 10 minutes, then decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds.
26. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs in the DTCs MENU with the HDS
Are any Temporary DTCs or DTCs indicated?
YES - If DTC P0138 is indicated, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC troubleshooting.
NO - Go to step 27
27. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0138 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES - Troubleshooting is complete
NO - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1. If the screen indicates EXECUTING, keep driving until a result comes on. If the screen indicates Out of CONDITION, go to step 24 and recheck.
28. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM.
29. With engine at operating temperature, (the radiator fans come on) let the engine idle for 10 minutes.
NOTE: The engine must idle for 10 minutes in addition to the idle learn procedure
30. Test-drive under the following conditions.
- Engine coolant temperature more than 158 °F (70 °C)
- A/T in D position (M/T in 5th gear)
- Engine speed at 2,000 - 3,000 rpm.
- Drive about 10 minutes, then decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds.
31. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Are any Temporary DTCs or DTCs indicated?
YES - If DTC P0138 is indicated, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC troubleshooting
NO - If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM.
