Engine Controls - Sensor Operating Range Charts: Introduction
NOTE:
When testing sensors on other models, see appropriate article:
TESTS W/CODES - 2.0L VINS [C,Y] & 2.4L VIN [X]
TESTS W/CODES - 2.5L FLEXIBLE FUEL
Sensor operating range information can help determine if a sensor is out of calibration. An out-of-calibration sensor may not set a trouble code, but it may cause driveability problems.
NOTE:
Unless stated otherwise in test procedure, perform all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance.
