  6. Disconnect HO2S 1 connector. Connect a jumper wire between HO2S 1 harness connector ground circuit and chassis ground. Using scan tool, read HO2S 1 voltage. If voltage is about 0.45 volt, go to next step. If voltage is not about 0.45 volt, go to step 10).
  7. Connect a jumper wire between HO2S 1 harness connector signal and ground circuits, and chassis ground. If voltage is less than 0.3 volt, go to next step. If voltage is not less than 0.3 volt, go to step 11).
  8. Repair condition causing fuel, sealant, oil or coolant contamination. Replace affected HO2S. After repairs, go to step 13).
