Diagnostic Test
- O2 SENSOR HEATER OPERATION
- Turn the ignition off.NOTE:
Wait a minimum of 8 minutes to allow the O2 Sensor to cool down before continuing the test. Allow the O2 Sensor voltage to stabilize at 5.0 volts.
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- With a scan tool, actuate the O2 1/1 Heater Test.NOTE:
The DTC needs to be cleared before actuating the Heater Test, if the DTC is not cleared, the Heater Test may not be allowed to actuate.
- With the scan tool, monitor O2 Sensor 2/2 voltage for at least 2 minutes.
Does the O2 Sensor voltage stay above 4.5 volts?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- Turn the ignition off.
- O2 HEATER ELEMENT
- Turn the ignition off.NOTE:
Allow the O2 Sensor to cool down to room temperature.
- Disconnect the O2 Sensor 2/2 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance across the O2 Sensor Heater element, between the O2 Heater Control terminal and the O2 Heater ground terminal at the component.NOTE:
O2 Heater Element resistance values should be measured at 21.1° C (70° F). The resistance value will vary with different temperature values.
Is the O2 Sensor Heater Element resistance between 2.88 and 13.0 ohms?
Yes
- Go To 3
No
- Replace the O2 Sensor.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- Turn the ignition off.
- O2 SENSOR
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- With a scan tool, actuate the O2 Heater Test.NOTE:
The DTC needs to be cleared before actuating the Heater Test, if the DTC is not cleared, the Heater Test may not be allowed to actuate.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12 volts, probe the (K399) O2 2/2 Heater Control circuit in the O2 Sensor harness connector.
Does the test light illuminate brightly and flash on and off during the actuation?
Yes
- Replace the O2 Sensor.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Go To 4
- CHECK THE (K399) O2 2/2 HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (K399) O2 2/2 Heater Control circuit in the O2 Sensor harness connector.
Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 5
No
- Repair the (K399) O2 2/2 Heater Control circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
- Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Oxygen Sensor 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.
- Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the Oxygen Sensor and Powertrain Control Module connectors.
- Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit and wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
- Look for the data to change or for a DTC to set during the wiggle test.
- Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.
Were there any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the service information.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
