RSX DTC P1166. Heater low voltage
Posted: Tue Jun 23, 2020 2:44 pm
2002 RSX with PRB and k24/k20 swap. Bought it recently with all this
Related calibration settings: Secondary O2 not enabled, OBDII functions disabled
Throwing P1166 after 10 secs of engine running.
Made some checks according to manual. Fuses, relay seem to be good.
Ended with this voltage reading at Primary O2 sensor plug(harness side) for heater circuit:
- 9.3V between + (WHT) and - (GRN) with engine shut
- 10.7V between + (WHT) and - (GRN) with engine running
- 12.5V between + (WHT) and - (exhaust as ground) with engine shut
Thought it was bad ground at G101, replaced it to valve cover stud as recommended - no luck. Going to clean ground wire at right engine mount, it doesn't look good (but if it can be related?).
Is it general ground problem or something with ECU A1 (heater ground) or its wire?
Datalog shows correct sensors info, e.g TPS works ok from 0 to 100%
Or am I completely wrong and this error is about low voltage at A22 and I should check heater relay output? But sensor side heater positive wire reads 12.5V when exhaust is ground..
P.S Secondary O2 is still plugged (going to unplug tomorrow and recheck). ECU was hanging on harness (not bolted) while testing.
