HO2S Visual Inspection

  1. Inspect the front HO2S for any silicon contamination. This contamination will be indicated by a white powdery coating and this will result in a bad false voltage signal. If contamination is evident on the HO2S, replace contaminated sensor with the new one and go to next step.
  2. Is sensor contaminated?

    YES 

    • Substitute with a known-good HO2S and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace HO2S and then Go to "Verification Of Repair " procedure.

    NO 

    • Go to next step.
