The computer program for controlling the engine does not work properly when the air-fuel ratio sensor circuit malfunctions, and therefore, if a wire breakage occurs inside the sensor, the air-fuel ratio may fall out of the target value. If this problem is left unattended, the catalyst converter may overheat and get damaged, and this could, in the worst case, lead to a fire.
