Test TC-105A - Downstream O2 Sensor Heater Failure

NOTE: For connector terminal ID, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  Directory. For wiring diagram, see appropriate WIRING DIAGRAMS - NON-TURBO article.
NOTE: 2.0L is equipped with one downstream O2 sensor.
  1. Disconnect downstream O2 sensor connector. Allow O2 sensor to cool to room temperature before checking resistance. Using an external ohmmeter, measure resistance between ASD relay output circuit and heater ground circuit (between 2 White wires) at downstream O2 sensor connector (component side). See the DOWNSTREAM O2 SENSOR CONNECTOR WIRE ID (HARNESS SIDE) . If resistance is 4-6 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is not 4-6 ohms, replace downstream O2 sensor. Perform TEST VER-5A.
  2. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, check resistance of downstream O2 sensor heater ground circuit at downstream O2 sensor connector (harness side). See DOWNSTREAM O2 SENSOR CONNECTOR WIRE ID (HARNESS SIDE). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open heater ground circuit. Perform TEST VER-5A.
  3. Start engine. Using scan tool in voltmeter mode, check voltage of sensor ground circuit at downstream O2 sensor connector (harness side). See DOWNSTREAM O2 SENSOR CONNECTOR WIRE ID (HARNESS SIDE). If voltage is 5 volts or less, go to next step. If voltage is more than 5 volts, repair short to voltage on sensor ground circuit. Perform TEST VER-5A.
  4. With engine running, using scan tool in voltmeter mode, check voltage of ASD relay output circuit at downstream O2 sensor connector (harness side). See DOWNSTREAM O2 SENSOR CONNECTOR WIRE ID (HARNESS SIDE). If voltage is less than 12 volts, repair open ASD relay output circuit. Perform TEST VER-5A. If voltage is 12 volts or more, replace downstream O2 sensor. Perform TEST VER-5A.
