Diagnosis/troubleshooting - all naturally-aspirated models
NOTE:
- The DTC covers electrical open circuits here.
Diagnostic conditions
- Exhaust temperature between 400°C and 800°C
- Battery positive voltage between 10 V and 16 V
- Oxygen sensor heating switched on for at least 120 seconds
Possible cause of fault
- Loose contact in connector
- Open circuit in the oxygen sensor signal wire
- Open circuit in the oxygen sensor ground wire
- Oxygen sensor faulty (also heating)
- DME control module faulty
Affected terminals
DME control module connector II, pin 9 and oxygen sensor jack, bank 1, pin 3
DME control module connector II, pin 15 and oxygen sensor jack, bank 1, pin 4
Diagnosis/troubleshooting
NOTE:
- Do not use contact spray on the oxygen sensor plug connections as this may cause irreparable damage to the wiring (contamination of the oxygen sensor via the reference air channel).
