Diagnostic Test

1) O2 SENSOR BELOW 1.5 VOLTS
Start the engine.

Allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature.

With a scan tool, read the 1/1 O2 Sensor voltage.

Is the voltage below 1.5 volts?

Yes
1. Go to 2).
No
1. Refer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION Diagnostic Procedure.
2. Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
2) (K41) O2 SENSOR 1/1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT
Turn the ignition off.

Disconnect the 1/1 O2 Sensor harness connector.

Ignition on, engine not running.

With a scan tool, monitor the 1/1 O2 Sensor voltage.

Is the 1/1 O2 Sensor voltage above 4.8 volts?

Yes
1. Go to 3).
No
1. Go to 5).
3) O2 SENSOR
