July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Oxygen (O2) Sensor

  1. Warm engine to normal operating temperature. Connect exhaust gas analyzer. Disconnect O2 sensor wire (at O2 sensor) from ECU.
  2. Connect a jumper wire between wire connecting to ECU (O2 sensor harness side) and ground. CO content should increase, indicating ECU and its connections are okay.
  3. Connect a voltmeter to O2 sensor. While engine is running voltmeter should fluctuate at approximately 0.5 volts if CO content is normal. Replace O2 sensor if not within specification.
