O2 Sensor Reference Voltage Circuit Low
The Front Oxygen Sensor (O2 Sensor 1) is placed into the exhaust manifold. It detects the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas compared to the outside air. The heated oxygen sensor 1 has a closed-end tube made of ceramic zirconia. The zirconia generates voltage from approximately 1V in richer conditions to 0V in leaner conditions. The heated oxygen sensor 1 signal is sent to the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM adjusts the injection pulse duration to achieve the ideal air-fuel ratio. The ideal air-fuel ratio occurs near the radical change from 1V to 0V.
Cause:
Faulty Front Oxygen Sensor Bank 1
Front Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 harness is open or shorted
Front Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 circuit poor electrical connection
Symptoms:
Check engine light
