ABSTRACT:
An air-fuel ratio control system for an internal combustion engine includes an air-fuel ratio sensor arranged in the exhaust system of the engine. An ECU determines activation of the air-fuel ratio sensor and carries out feedback control of the air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to the engine in response to the output from the air-fuel ratio sensor. An intermediate state of the air-fuel ratio sensor corresponding to a transient state of the air-fuel ratio sensor from an inactive state thereof to an active state thereof is determined. The output from the air-fuel ratio sensor for use in execution of the feedback control is corrected when the air-fuel ratio sensor is in the intermediate state.
