2005 1mzfe V6 fuel trim issue

Hi all,I have been reading the forum and there is grwat information in here.I have a 2005 1mzfe v6 which I have fitted in my MR2. This is a new build and I am at a loss as to why my fuel trims are all over the place.The stft are alternating on each bank, as are the afr sensors. Bank1 will be -20 while bank 2 will be 20 and then they will reverse.
See screenshot below.

After we figure this out, you'll have to show me how you managed to shoehorn a 1MZ into an MR2 engine bay. :ohmy: :lol:

Would it be possible for you to post the video that your fuel trim screenshots were taken from? Might help to see the fuel trim reactions in real time.

With the swings in the fuel trims bank-to-bank, my first thought is that the upstream AFR's are reversed. As in, the bank one sensor is connected to the bank two harness. In that condition, the trims will never be able to get things under control.

I know that on stock 1MZ applications, reversing the AFR connectors is pretty much impossible. But I figure at least a few modifications were needed to the 1MZ harness to make this engine swap work.

There are only the two upstream afrs in these builds.

Unfortunately, the forums aren't set up to allow for MP4's. :(

If you like, email me at wrenchturnsyou@gmail.com and I'll upload it.

Right. I'm wondering if the two upstreams are reversed.

I'd say files are too big. I'll Dropbox em or summit.Wouldn't rule out crossed but I don't think so.

Both, Bank 1 and Bank 2 Air Fuel sensor voltages are identical, and glitching to 4.99 V. :huh: I don't know what that means, but it's mention-able. :blink: Is it possible that you have a crushed wiring harness, somewhere?

Harness was modified and built professionally so I doubt it's a crushed harness.
I am completely perplexed, I thought it maybe a vac leak between the maf and the intake but I can't find anything. Several cans of brake cleaner and nothing.

Surely if I disconnected one afr and it shows the correct bank then they are not crossed

I'm back, can I ask you guys if a restriction in flow in the exhaust of one bank would cause this. After the afr obviously?

I can confirm the afr sensors are NOT reversed.
This really is giving me a pain now

If i recall correctly the upstreams on that engine....high voltage is lean command. 3.3v is where it needs to be.

Your first order of business is to create rich and lean conditions for the car and see if you can get your upstream to react....report back whenever you get that done.

For a rich condition, I use propane in the intake tube

Edit: Why is your bank 1 sensor sensor 2 showing 0v? that should be your downstream in your cat. That engine doesnt have two cats....so you dont have a voltage reading for bank 2 sensor 2 which makes sense

Hi there,
There are only 2 afr sensors on this, no o2 sensors.

The MZFE ECU is going to look for that O2 downstream voltage....if its not there, thats your issue. Tuning that stuff out so the ECU ignores is beyond my scope but I assume you did flash the ECU to account for that yes?

Low voltage on the downstream is lean. I know the upstreams will adjust the LTFT and STFT readings but I am not 100% sure how the downstream will factor in that.

The guy who does these conversions and dud the wiring in mine is puzzled. I bought a vac gauge and it settles on 22 hg and then drops 1 hg and back up. Will post vid on YouTube and link here shortly

So I removed the cone filter and restricted the air flow somewhat thorough the maf and it seemed to improve things.
