Diagnostic Test

  1. OXYGEN SENSOR 1/2 VOLTAGE 
    1. 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 may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
    2. With a scan tool, monitor the 1/2 O2 Sensor Volts.

      Is the voltage less than 2.52 volts?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  2

      No 

  2. (K141) O2 1/2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT VOLTAGE 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Oxygen Sensor 1/2 harness connector.
    3. Turn the ignition on.
    4. With a scan tool, monitor the 1/2 O2 Sensor Volts.

      Is the voltage above 4.8 volts?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  3

      No 

      • Go to step  5
  3. OXYGEN SENSOR 1/2

    1. Measure the voltage on the (K904) O2 1/2 Return circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/2 harness connector.

      Is the voltage between 2.475 and 2.525 volts?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  4
  4. (K904) O2 1/2 RETURN CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) harness connector.
    3. Measure the resistance between ground and the (K904) O2 1/2 Return circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/2 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  8
  5. (K141) O2 1/2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND

    1. Measure the resistance between ground and the (K141) O2 1/2 Signal circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/2 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  6
  6. (K141) O2 1/2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (K904) O2 1/2 RETURN CIRCUIT

    1. Measure the resistance between the (K141) O2 1/2 Signal circuit and the (K904) O2 1/2 Return circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/2 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  7
  7. (K141) O2 1/2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (K299) O2 1/2 HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT 
    Fig 5: Checking O2 Sensor Circuit

    1. Measure the resistance between the (K141) O2 1/2 Signal circuit and the (K299) O2 1/2 Heater Control circuit in the Oxygen Sensor 1/2 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  8
  8. POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) 
    1. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Oxygen Sensor 1/2 and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
    2. Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched or partially broken wires.
    3. Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
    4. Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) that may apply.

      Were any problems found?

      Yes 

      No
