Code 13 (DOHC) - O2 Sensor (Heated Sensor) Open/Shorted Circuit: Notes
The ECM supplies a .45 volt signal between terminals D6 and D7. When O2 sensor reaches operating temperature, it varies this voltage from approximately .1-.9 volt (lean to rich exhaust). O2 sensor does not produce voltage when temperature is less than 600°F (316°C) or when engine operates in open loop.
NOTE:
Test numbers refer to test numbers on diagnostic chart.
- Code 13 will set if all the following conditions are met for 4 seconds:
- Engine temperature is greater than 157°F (69.5°C).
- Engine has been running for at least 2 minutes after start.
- O2 signal voltage steady between .420 and .547 volt.
- Throttle angle greater than 10 percent.
If conditions for Code 13 exist, system will not go into closed loop.
- This determines if sensor, wiring or ECM is the cause of Code 13.
- Use only a high impedance (10-megohm) digital volt-ohmmeter. This tests continuity of circuits from terminals D6 and D7. If circuit from terminal D6 is open, ECM voltage on circuit from terminal D7 will be greater than .6 volt.
