P227118 | A/F (O2) Sensor Signal Biased/Stuck Rich Bank 1 Sensor 2 Circuit Current Below Threshold | While the fuel-cut operation is performed (during vehicle deceleration), the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) current is less than 7.5 mA for 0.5 seconds or more (2 trip detection logic). |

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
A rich air fuel mixture causes a low air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) current, and a lean air fuel mixture causes a high air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) current. Therefore, the sensor output becomes low during acceleration, and it becomes high during deceleration with the throttle valve fully closed. The ECM monitors the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) current during fuel-cut and detects any abnormal current values.
If the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) output is less than 7.5 mA for 0.5 seconds or more of cumulative time, the ECM stores DTC P227118 (stuck on low side).
