Yes
Goto L4

No
REPAIR the circuit. For additional information, refer to the wiring diagrams. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

L4 : CHECK THE LEFT-HAND BANK CATALYST MONITOR SENSOR POWER SUPPLY WIRE FOR A SHORT TO GROUND

1. Measure the resistance between the catalyst monitor sensor electrical connector EN9 pin 4 (N) and GROUND.

Is the resistance less than 10,000 ohms?
Yes
REPAIR the short to ground. For additional information, refer to the wiring diagrams. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

No
Goto L5

L5 : CHECK THE LEFT-HAND BANK CATALYST MONITOR SENSOR POWER SUPPLY WIRE FOR A SHORT TO BATTERY

1. Measure the voltage between the catalyst monitor sensor electrical connector EN9 pin 4 (N) and GROUND.

Is the voltage greater than 1 volt?
Yes
REPAIR the short to battery. For additional information, refer to the wiring diagrams. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

No
INSTALL a new left-hand bank catalyst monitor sensor. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation. If the DTC is repeated, INSTALL a new PCM. For additional information, Before replacing a PCM, contact Dealer technical support.

L6 : CHECK THE LEFT-HAND BANK CATALYST MONITOR SENSOR POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT

1. Measure the voltage between the catalyst monitor sensor electrical connector EN9 pin 2 (WR) and GROUND.
