DTC P0133 – HO2S Slow Response Bank 1 Sensor 1 (Cont'd)
Step NoYesValue(s)Action
14 Visually/physically inspect the following items:
B Ensure that the Bank 1 HO2S 1 is securely
installed.
B Check for corrosion on terminals.
B Check terminal tension (at Bank 1 HO2S 1 and at
the PCM).
B Check for damaged wiring.
Was a problem found in any of the above areas?

15 1. Disconnect Bank 1 HO2S 1.
2. Ignition “ON”.
3. Using a DVM at the PCM side of the HO2S 1
connector, measure the voltage between the high
signal circuit and ground. Also measure the voltage
between the low signal circuit and ground.
Are both voltages in the specified range?
3-4 V Go to

Step 19
16 1. With Bank 1 HO2S 1 disconnected, jumper the high
and low (PCM side) signal circuits to ground.
2. Ignition “ON”.
3. Using a Tech 2, monitor the Bank 1 HO2S 1 voltage.
Does the Tech 2 indicate less than 10 mV and
immediately return to about 450 mV when the jumper is
removed?
