The oxygen sensor 1 (02S-1) is an electrical source that responds to oxygen
content in the exhaust manifold. When the sensor reaches approximately 316°C
(600°F), it produces a voltage based on the difference in oxygen between the atmosphere
and exhaust gas. The PCM sends a bias voltage (399-499 mV) on the signal
line, which is pulled up through high resistance. When the O2S-1 is cold, it produces
no voltage and has extremely high internal resistance. The internal resistance of
the sensor is much greater than the resistance of the bias pull-up resistor. However,
when the sensor heats up, it produces voltage that overrides the bias voltage. This
voltage is read by the PCM to determine a rich/lean O2S-1 signal used to adjust injector
pulse width. Under normal conditions, low sensor voltage means high oxygen content/lean
air-fuel mixture and vice versa. Normal sensor readings will fluctuate between 10-1065 mV.
DTC P1133 sets when the O2S-1 signal has too few switches, under 300 mV
to over 600 mV and vice versa, over a certain length of time.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC P1133 will set if the O2S-1 rich/lean transitions are less than 1
(auto) and 2 (manual) or the lean/rich transitions are less than 1 count
when:
| • | The engine run time is greater than 3 minutes and 20 seconds. |
| • | The engine speed is between 1,800-2,300 RPM (auto) and 2,350-3000 RPM
(manual). |
| • | The TP angle is between 8-15 percent (auto) and 22-40 percent
(manual). |
| • | The ECT is greater than 70° (158°F). |
| • | The fuel level is greater than 10 percent. |
| • | The EVAP purge solenoid DC is greater than 80 percent. |
| • | The loop status is closed. |
| • | No CKP, ECT, EVAP, fuel injector, fuel tank pressure, fuel trim, IAT,
idle speed, MAP, misfire, PCM internal fault, or TP sensor DTCs have been set. |
DTC P1133 diagnostic runs once per ignition cycle for a maximum of 30 seconds
once the above conditions have been met.
DTC P1133 is a type B DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
Possible causes of DTC P1133:
| • | An intermittent connection or corrosion in the O2S-1 harness connector
can set this DTC. Use the scan tool to monitor O2S-1 voltage with engine running
at normal operating temperature while wiggling the signal and ground wire. Make sure
the sensor is tight. |
| • | The most probable cause for DTC P1133 is contamination. Check for obvious
contamination, oil, fuel, or engine coolant, by removing the sensor. Identify
and correct the cause of the contamination if contaminated. Replace the O2S-1. |
