<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an oxygen sensor heating control method reflecting a P-jump delay time and oxygen sensor diagnostic indexes calculated based on the output voltage of an oxygen sensor on the heating control of the oxygen sensor. <P>SOLUTION: In this oxygen sensor heating control method for a vehicle engine, the lower limit values of heating factors are controlled based on the heating factors used in the heating control process of the oxygen sensor, the P-jump delay time and the oxygen sensor diagnostic indexes calculated based on the voltage of the oxygen sensor. Thus, even if the oxygen sensor is aged and the performance is deteriorated, the engine can be stably operated. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
