Test procedure
-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK .
Start diagnosis
-- Connect scan tool.
-- Start the engine and let it run at idle.
-- Select "Diagnostic mode 6: Check test results of components that are not continuously monitored".
-- Select "Test-ID 02: Oxygen sensor monitoring behind catalytic converter".
-- Select following Test-IDs.
-- Compare the specified values in the Mode 6 table to the scan tool readings at idle.
If the specified value was obtained:
-- Switch the ignition OFF.
-- Fault may be intermittent.
-- Check for loose or corroded connections and any leaks in the exhaust.
-- Check Freeze Frame data for conditions when the DTC set.
-- Go to Final procedures.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- For connector location, removal and installation procedures. Refer to the appropriate Service Information.
-- Remove the engine covers. Refer to the appropriate Service Information.
-- Disconnect the oxygen sensor electrical harness connector. Oxygen sensor after three way catalytic converter - G130- -1-.
-- Switch ignition ON.
-- Using a Multimeter, check the Oxygen sensor after three way catalytic converter - G130- electrical harness connector terminals 3 to 4 for voltage.
- Specification: 0.4 to 2 V.
-- Switch ignition OFF.
If the specified value was obtained:
-- Replace the oxygen sensor. Oxygen sensor after three way catalytic converter - G130- Refer to the appropriate Service Information for removal and installation procedures.
-- Go to Final procedures.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
Checking wiring and connections
-- Remove the engine control module. Refer to the appropriate Service Information for removal and installation procedures.
-- Using a Multimeter, measure the resistance of the signal and reference ground circuits between the oxygen sensor and the engine control module. Refer to the appropriate System Wiring Diagram.

Specified value: 1.5 Ω max.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Check the circuits for a short to each other, short to battery voltage, and short to ground.
-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- Repair the wiring or connection as necessary.
-- Go to Final procedures.
If the specified value was obtained:
-- Check the wiring connection for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connections, if no faults were found.
-- Replace the engine control module. Engine Control Module - J623- Refer to the appropriate Service Information for removal and installation procedures.
Final procedures
-- Reinstall the engine covers, if necessary. Refer to the appropriate Service Information.
-- For connector location, removal and installation procedures. Refer to the appropriate Service Information.
-- After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
- Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
- If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
- If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
