Heated Oxygen Sensor: Testing and Inspection
Checking HO2S Sensor Signal
Oxygen Sensor Connectors 20v
-
Fold back rubber boot at oxygen sensor lead 1, do not separate connectors.
-
Connect Digital Volt Ohm Multimeter (DVOM) between exposed sensor lead and ground.
^
DVOM should oscillate between 0.1 and 0.9 Volts
-
If reading is fixed at 0.4 - 0.6 Volts, check for open circuit between sensor and ECM.
-
If reading is too low, check for grounded signal wire, intake leak, or heater element operation.
-
If reading is too high, check for signal lead short to other wiring.
-
If wiring is OK, replace sensor and recheck.
