Component Inspection
- Visually/physically inspect the following conditions:
- Ensure that the sensor is securely installed
- Check for corrosion on terminals
- Check for damaged wiring
- Repair as necessary and go to next step
- Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature and let it idle.
- Connect Scan Tool and monitor the O2 SNSR VOL.-B1/S2 parameter on the Scan Tool data list.
Specification : Refer to "SIGNAL WAVEFORM & DATA " in the "General Information" procedure. Verify signal is switching from rich (above 0.45V) to lean (below 0.45V) a minimum of 3 times in 10 seconds (voltage will vary between 0.1 and 0.9V) at idle.
- Is sensor switching properly?
YES
- Check for poor connection between ECM and component: backed out terminal, improper mating, broken locks or poor terminal to wire connection. Repair as necessary and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure
NO
- Check HO2S for contamination, deterioration, or damage. Substitute with a known-good HO2S and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace HO2S and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure
