P1164 Meaning

The Air/Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor 1 is installed in the exhaust system and detects the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gases. The A/F sensor sends the output voltage to the Engine Control Module (ECM). A heating element for the sensor element is built into the A/F sensor (sensor 1). It is activated and heats the sensor to stabilize and speed up the detection of oxygen concentration by controlling the current flowing through the heater. The current increase stabilizes when the voltage applied to the element electrode reaches a certain range because the amount of oxygen that passes through the diffusion layer is limited. The current amperage is proportional to the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gases, so the air/fuel ratio is detected by measuring the current amperage. The ECM compares a defined target air/fuel ratio with the detected air/fuel ratio and controls the fuel injection timing.
If the A/F sensor (sensor 1) voltage is low, the air/fuel ratio is lean and the ECM uses A/F feedback control to issue a Rich command. If the A/F sensor (sensor 1) voltage is high, the air/fuel ratio is rich and the ECM uses A/F feedback control to issue a Lean command.

The Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 is placed in the exhaust manifold. It detects the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gases compared to the outside air. The Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 has a closed-end zirconia ceramic tube. Zirconia generates a voltage of about 1 V under rich conditions to 0 V under lean 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 abrupt change from 1 to 0V.

The ECM compares a preset target air/fuel ratio with the detected air/fuel ratio and controls the fuel injection timing.
