• Ignition off.
• Reinstall components, reconnect connectors etc.
• Start the engine and let it idle.
• Read off the lambda value for the rear heated oxygen sensor (HO2S).
  NOTE: It takes approximately 25 seconds before fuel trim starts.

  Check that the value is within its permitted range. The value should be approximately 0.98 and 1.02.

  If the value is now OK it means that the cause of the fault has been loose connections in connector.
