Heated Oxygen Sensor Before Catalytic Converter, Checking

Heated Oxygen Sensor, Checking

NOTE: Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing terminals in the electrical harness connectors of the Heated Oxygen Sensor (H02S) G39.

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
- Multimeter.
- Wiring diagram.

Test requirements
- Fuse S243 OK.
- Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220 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. General Diagnosis

Start diagnosis
- Perform the function test in Diagnostic Mode 06. - Read Test Results for Specific Diagnostic Functions. Diagnostic Mode 06 - Read Test Results For Specific Diagnostic Functions

If specified values are obtained:
- End diagnosis and switch the ignition off.

If the specified values are not obtained:

Checking primary voltage







- Disconnect the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 electrical harness connector - 2 -.







- Using a multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 electrical harness connector terminals 1 to 5 for voltage.

Specified value: 0.400 to 0.500 Volts

- Switch the ignition off.

If the specified value was not obtained:
- Replace the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39.

If the specified value was obtained:

Checking wiring
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
- Install the test box VAG1598/31.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220.







- Using a Multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 electrical harness connector terminals to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220 electrical harness connector terminals for resistance.

Specified value: 1.5 Ohms Max.

If the specification was not obtained:
- Check the wiring for a 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 found in the wiring:
- Erase the DTC memory. Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory
- Perform a road test to verify repair.

If the DTC does not return:
Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Readiness Code
- End diagnosis.

If the DTC does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:
- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220.
- 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. Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code.

End of diagnosis
