The United states started placing trade embargoes to halt Japan's plans for expansion in China. This did not work. The Sino-Japanese War (China vs. Japan) also hurt trade for the US with China. Another Reason is Japan join the Axis powers through the Tripartite Pact. Towards the end of 1941 Japan felt pressured with the fact that their oil stockpiles were running out. They needed the oil reserves in the East Indies (Including the American Protectorate, The Phillippines) So on December 7th, 1941 Japan attacked the United States in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Causing the US to enter World War II.

Do you mean, "What did the U.S do to japan before peal harbor?" and if so, the U.S imposed a trade embargo on Japan because Japan had invaded Indonesia. The trade embargo cut Japan's oil supplies quite a bit.
The U.S. issued an embargo on Japanese trade in 1941 primarily in response to Japan's aggressive military expansion in Asia, particularly its invasion of China and occupation of French Indochina. This action was intended to curtail Japan's access to vital resources, such as oil and steel, which were crucial for its war efforts. The embargo aimed to pressure Japan to withdraw from its aggressive actions and prevent further conflict in the Pacific. Ultimately, this economic sanction contributed to escalating tensions that led to the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941.
The US did not threaten much; they did very concrete things. Primarily, the United States imposed a trade embargo on Japan. Since Japan has no raw materials and the US was the chief supplier of Japanese petroleum, this had the effect of crippling Japanese wartime industry.
