1. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.  
DTC Description  
Confirmed DTC Pending DTC Freeze Frame  
P2229 BARO SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH VOLTAGE  
Is DTC P2229 indicated?  
YES : Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a  
known-good PCM See PCM REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE , then recheck. If the  
PCM was substituted, go to step 1.  
NO : Troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM See PCM  
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE . If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are  
indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

DTC Description  
P2238 AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR (SENSOR 1)  
AFS+ CIRCUIT LOW VOLTAGE  
Is DTC P2238 indicated?  
YES : The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.  
NO : Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at  
the A/F sensor (Sensor 1), the PGM-FI subrelay, and the PCM.  
2. Shorted wire check (AFS+ line):  
ο‚‘
ο‚‘
ο‚‘
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).  
2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.  
3. Disconnect the following connectors  
A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 4P connector  
PCM connector C (49P)  
ο‚‘
4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.  
Test condition IG LOCK (0)  
A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 4P connector: disconnected  
PCM connector C (49P): disconnected  
Test circuit AFS+  
Test point 1 PCM connector C (49P) No. 39 (RED)  
Test point 2 Body ground

Is there continuity?  
YES : Repair a short in the AFS+ wire between the PCM (C39) and the A/F sensor (Sensor 1), then do  
the repair verification .  
NO : The AFS+ wire is OK. Go to step 3.  
3. PCM internal circuit check:  
ο‚‘
ο‚‘
ο‚‘
1. Reconnect PCM connector C (49P).  
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).  
3. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.  
Test condition IG ON (II)  
A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 4P connector: disconnected  
Test circuit AFS+  
Test point 1 A/F sensor (Sensor 1) 4P connector No. 2 (RED)  
Test point 2 Body ground

Is the voltage about 2.2 V?  
YES : The PCM internal circuit is OK. REPLACE THE A/F SENSOR (SENSOR 1) , then do the  
repair verification .  
NO : Update the PCM See PCM REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE if it does  
not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM See PCM UPDATE or PCM  
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION , then do the repair verification .

1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).  
2. Reconnect all connectors.  
3. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).  
4. Reset the PCM with the HDS See HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT THE A/T SYSTEM or HOW  
TO TROUBLESHOOT THE FUEL AND EMISSIONS SYSTEMS .

Status  
P2238 AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR (SENSOR 1) AFS+ CIRCUIT LOW  
VOLTAGE  
Does the HDS indicate PASSED, FAILED, or NOT COMPLETED?  
PASSED : Troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM See PCM  
UPDATE or PCM REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION . If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were  
indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.  
FAILED : Go to step 1 and recheck. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM See PCM  
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE , then check the OBD STATUS again.  
NOT COMPLETED : Keep idling until a result comes on.
