Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector of the HO2S 2.
- Engine idling, verify that the scan tool HO2S 2 parameter is between 350-500 mV.
- If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 5 ohms of resistance between the low reference circuit and ground.
- If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
- Verify that none of the following conditions exist:
- Rich fuel injectors. Refer to Fuel Injector Balance Test with Special Tool .
- Water intrusion in the HO2S harness connector.
- High fuel system pressure. Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis .
- Fuel that is contaminated. Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis .
- Fuel saturation of the evaporative emission (EVAP) canister.
- Exhaust leaks near the HO2S.
- Contaminated HO2S-Silicon.
- If you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary.
- If all circuits/connections test normal, replace the HO2S.
