Abstract
In an air-to-fuel ratio feedback control system of the type in which the output detection signal of an air-to-fuel ratio detector adapted to detect the concentration of an exhaust gas constituent of an internal combustion engine is compared with a preset value in a comparison circuit whose output signal in turn is utilized to feedback control the air-to-fuel ratio of mixture supplied to the engine, the preset value of the comparison circuit is changed to another value in response to the occurrence of a condition which requires the stopping of the feedback control of the air-to-fuel ratio of mixture supplied to the engine, thereby preventing the occurrence of malfunction during transient periods such as the periods of opening and closing of the feedback control system loop.
