  1. Start the engine.
  2. Allow the engine to idle at operating temperature. Refer to Scan Tool Data List .
  3. Observe the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 1 Heater Current parameter with a scan tool.
  4. Allow the HO2S 1 Heater Current parameter to stabilize.
Is the amperage within the specified range?
0.30-1.45 A Go to Step 3  Go to Step 4

  1. Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records for this DTC.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition for 30 seconds.
  3. Start the engine.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
Did the DTC fail this ignition?
- Go to Step 4  Go to Intermittent Conditions

IMPORTANT: Use a known good ground. DO NOT use the HO2S 1 heater low control circuit or the HO2S 1 low reference circuit.
  1. Disconnect the HO2S 1 connector.
  2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  3. Probe the HO2S 1 heater ignition 1 voltage circuit, on the engine harness side, with a test lamp connected to a good ground. Refer to Probing Electrical Connectors .
Does the test lamp illuminate?
- Go to Step 6  Go to Step 5 
5 Test the HO2S 1 heater ignition 1 voltage fuse for an open. Refer to Circuit Testing .
Is the fuse open?
- Go to Step 10  Go to Step 15

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Connect a test lamp between the HO2S 1 ignition 1 voltage circuit and the HO2S 1 heater low control circuit, on the engine harness side connector.
  3. Start the engine.
Does the test lamp illuminate?
- Go to Step 7  Go to Step 8

  1. Leave the test lamp connected between the HO2S 1 heater ignition voltage circuit and the HO2S 1 heater low control circuit.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition.
  3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
Does the test lamp illuminate?
- Go to Step 9  Go to Step 12 
8
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the powertrain control module (PCM) connector containing the HO2S 1 heater low control circuit.
  3. Measure the resistance from the HO2S heater low control circuit between the PCM harness connector and the HO2S harness connector using a DMM. Refer to Circuit Testing .
Is the resistance within the specified range?
0-5 Ω Go to Step 13  Go to Step 14 
9 Test the HO2S 1 heater low control circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 13 
10 Test the HO2S 1 heater ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground and replace the fuse. Refer to Circuit Testing andWiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 11 
11 Measure the resistance from the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the sensor side of the HO2S harness connector to each of the following circuits:
  • The HO2S low reference circuit
  • Ground

Is the resistance less than the specified value?
5 Ω Go to Step 16  Go to Intermittent Conditions
12 Test for an intermittent and for a poor connection at the harness connector of the HO2S 1. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 16 
13 Test for an intermittent and for a poor connection at the harness connector of the PCM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 17 
14 Repair the open or high resistance in the HO2S 1 heater low control circuit. Refer to Wiring Repairs .
Did you complete the repair.
- Go to Step 18  -
15 Repair the open or high resistance in the HO2S 1 ignition 1 voltage circuit. Refer to Wiring Repairs .
Did you complete the repair.
- Go to Step 18  -
16 Replace the HO2S 1. Refer to Heated Oxygen Sensor Replacement - Position 1 .
Did you complete the replacement?
- Go to Step 18  -
17 Replace the PCM. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming.
Did you complete the replacement?
- Go to Step 18  -

  1. Clear the DTCs with a scan tool.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition for 30 seconds.
  3. Start the engine.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
Did the DTC fail this ignition?
- Go to Step 2  Go to Step 19 
19 Observe the Capture Info with a scan tool.
Are there any DTCs that have not been diagnosed?
- Go to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle System OK
