Concorde V6-215 35L SOHC (1996) Oxygen Sensor Testing - Helpful Information
Oxygen Sensor: Testing and Inspection
Sensor Heating Element Test
NOTE: This test should be performed only after basic inspection, and ignition and fuel systems inspections are passed.
NOTE: Only use a high input impedance Digital Volt Ohm Meter (DVOM) when testing components on computerized vehicles.
NOTE: Verify DVOM is set to read OHMS only (not volts). Verify external voltage is not applied to the sensor lead, as inaccurate results will occur.
1. Disconnect the oxygen sensor(s) electrical connector from the wiring harness
2. Connect the ohmmeter test leads to terminals of the white wires in the heated oxygen sensor connector. Set to read OHMS.
3. Resistance value should be between 5 and 7 ohms.
4. Replace the sensor if the resistance reading is not within the previous specifications or if the ohmmeter indicates infinite resistance.
