Oxygen Sensor After Catalytic Converter, Checking

Diagnostic Procedures

Oxygen Sensor after Catalytic Converter, Checking

• Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing terminals in the electrical harness connectors of the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) 2 Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130).

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

• multimeter.

• Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

• Fuse (SB4) OK.

• Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) fuses OK.

• Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.

• All electrical consumers such as, lights and rear window defroster, switched off.

• Vehicles with automatic transmission, shift selector lever into position " P" or "N".

• A/C switched off.

• Ground (GND) connections between engine/transmission/chassis OK.

• Ignition switched off.

Test procedure

- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Preliminary Check ] Preliminary Check.

Start diagnosis

- Perform the function test in Diagnostic Mode 06.

If specified values are obtained:

- Switch the ignition off. Generate the readiness code.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Remove the retaining screws and the cover.





Checking primary voltage

- Disconnect the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) 2 Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130) electrical harness connector.

- Switch the ignition on.

- Using a multimeter, check the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) 2 Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130) electrical harness connector terminals 3 to 4 for voltage.





Specified value: 0.400 to 0.500 Volts

- Switch the ignition off.

If the specified value was obtained:

- Replace the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) 2 Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130)..

If the specified value was Not obtained:

Checking wiring

If the manufacturers test box is being used, perform the following step.

- Install the test box.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used, perform the following step.

- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to the repair information.

- Using a multimeter, check the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) 2 Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130) electrical harness connector terminals to the Engine Control Module (ECM) ( J623) electrical harness connector T94 terminals for resistance.





Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Check the wiring for an open, high resistance, short circuit to each other, Battery (+), and Ground (GND).

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was Not OK:

- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ). Refer to the repair information.

- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.

Final procedures

After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Scan Tool Testing and Procedures.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Scan Tool Testing and Procedures.

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.
