Step	Check	Yes	No
1 CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR.	Has water entered the connector?	Completely remove any water inside.	Go to step 2.
2 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the connector from ECM. Disconnect the connector from rear oxygen sensor. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector. Connector & terminal (B136) No. 20 - (T6) No. 3: (B135) No. 30 - (T6) No. 4:	Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?	Go to step 3.	Repair the harness and connector. NOTE: In this case, repair the following item: Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector Poor contact of coupling connector
3 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR. Measure the resistance between ECM connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B136) No. 20 - Chassis ground:	Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?	Go to step 4.	Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor connector.
4 CHECK EXHAUST SYSTEM. Check exhaust system parts. NOTE: Check the following items. Looseness and improper fitting of exhaust system parts Damage (crack, hole etc.) of parts Damage (crack, hole etc.) between front oxygen (A/F) sensor and rear oxygen sensor	Is there any fault in exhaust system?	Repair or replace faulty parts.	Replace the rear oxygen sensor. <Ref. to Rear Oxygen Sensor .>
