P0137
DTC P0137CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The engine control module (ECM) supplies a voltage near 450 mV between the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) high signal circuit and the low reference circuit. The HO2S varies the voltage over a range from about 1,000 mV when the exhaust is rich, down through about 10 mV when the exhaust is lean.
The ECM monitors and stores the HO2S voltage information. The ECM evaluates the HO2S voltage samples in order to determine the amount of time that the HO2S voltage was out of range. The ECM compares the stored HO2S voltage samples taken within each sample period and determines if the majority of the samples are out of the operating range.
The ECM monitors the HO2S voltage for being fixed below a predetermined voltage. If the ECM detects the voltage is too low, this DTC sets.
The HO2S utilizes the following circuits:
- A signal circuit
- A low reference circuit
- An ignition 1 voltage circuit
- A heater control circuit

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
Closed Loop Test
- DTCs P0106, P0107, P0108, P0117, P0118, P0122, P0123, P0141, P0171, P0172, P0201-P0204, P0300, P0336, P0337, P0351, P0352, P0401, P0402, P0404, P0405, P0406, P0441, P0443, P0488, P0502, P0506, and P0507 are not set.
- The engine coolant temperature is more than 60°C (140°F).
- The ignition 1 voltage is more than 10 volts.
- The calculated airflow is more than 9 g/s.
- The fuel system is in closed loop.
- DTC P0137 runs continuously once the above conditions are met for 3 seconds.
Power Enrichment Test
- DTCs P0106, P0107, P0108, P0117, P0118, P0122, P0123, P0141, P0171, P0172, P0201-P0204, P0300, P0336, P0337, P0351, P0352, P0401, P0402, P0404, P0405, P0406, P0441, P0443, P0488, P0502, P0506, and P0507 are not set.
- The engine coolant temperature is more than 60°C (140°F).
- The ignition 1 voltage is more than 10 volts.
- The air fuel ratio is less than or equal to 13.5:1.
- DTC P0137 runs continuously once the above conditions are met for 3 seconds.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
Closed Loop Test
- The ECM detects that the HO2S 2 voltage is less than 52 mV.
- The condition exists for more than 4 minutes.
Power Enrichment Test
- The ECM detects that the HO2S 2 voltage is less than 35 mV during power enrichment.
- The condition exists for more than 11 seconds.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module stores this information in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
