Diagnostic Test

1) OXYGEN SENSOR 1/1 VOLTAGE
Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.

WARNING: When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts, or fan. Do not wear loose clothing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.

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

Is the voltage less than 2.52 volts?

Yes
1. Go to 2).
No
1. Refer to the *CHECKING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION Diagnostic Procedure.
2) (K41) O2 1/1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT VOLTAGE
Turn the ignition off.

Disconnect the Oxygen Sensor 1/1 harness connector.

Turn the ignition on.

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

Is the voltage above 4.8 volts?

Yes
1. Go to 3).
No
1. Go to 5).
3) OXYGEN SENSOR 1/1

Measure the voltage on the (K902) O2 1/1 Return circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/1 harness connector.

Is the voltage between 2.475 and 2.525 volts?

Yes
1. Replace the Oxygen Sensor 1/1.
2. Perform PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
1. Go to 4).
4) (K902) O2 1/1 RETURN CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND

Turn the ignition off.

Disconnect the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) harness connector.

Measure the resistance between ground and the (K902) O2 1/1 Return circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/1 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

Yes
1. Repair the (K902) O2 1/1 Return circuit for a short to ground.
2. Perform PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
1. Go to 8).
5) (K41) O2 1/1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND

Measure the resistance between ground and the (K41) O2 1/1 Signal circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/1 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

Yes
1. Repair the (K41) O2 1/1 Signal circuit for a short to ground.
2. Perform PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
1. Go to 6).
6) (K41) O2 1/1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (K902) O2 1/1 RETURN CIRCUIT

Measure the resistance between the (K41) O2 1/1 Signal circuit and the (Z916) Ground circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/1 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

Yes
1. Repair the short between the (Z916) Ground circuit and the (K41) O2 1/1 Signal circuit.
2. Perform PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
1. Go to 8).
8) POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Oxygen Sensor 1/1 and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).

Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.

Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.

Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

Were any problems found?

Yes
1. Repair as necessary.
2. Perform PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
1. Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) in accordance with the Service Information.
2. Perform PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
