Oxygen Sensor Heater Before Catalytic Converter, Checking

Oxygen Sensor Heater, Checking

NOTE:
- Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Heater Z19 is part of Heated Oxygen Sensor (H02S) G39 and cannot be replaced separately.
- When servicing electrical harness connector terminals for the Heated Oxygen Sensor (H02S), use only gold-plated terminals.

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

Test requirements
- Fuse (on fuse panel) S243 OK.
- Fuel Pump (FP) Relay J17 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
- Remove the engine cover with air filter.

Checking internal resistance







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







- Using a multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) terminals 3 to 4 for an open circuit.

Specified value: 2.5 to 10.0 Ohms (at approx. 20 degrees C)

If the specification was not obtained:
- Replace the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 or the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) 2 G108.

If the specification was obtained:

Checking voltage supply







- Using a multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) electrical harness connector terminal 4 to ground (GND) for voltage.

Specified value: Battery voltage.

If the specification was not obtained:
- Check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 electrical harness connector terminal 3 to the Fuel Pump (FP) Relay J17 socket 23/87 an open circuit, a short circuit to each other, Battery (+), or Ground (GND).
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If the specification was obtained:

Checking Ground (GND) activation

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) electrical harness connector to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220 electrical harness connector for resistance.

4 5

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 detected in the wiring and if the voltage supply was OK:
- 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. General Diagnosis
- 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
