Oxygen Sensor Heater Z19, Checking

Oxygen Sensor Heater Z19, Checking

NOTE:
- Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Heater Z19 is part of Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 and cannot be serviced separately.
- When servicing terminals in the electrical harness connector of Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39, use only goldplated terminals.

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

Test requirements
- The Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay 2 J670 OK.
- Fuse SB45 OK.
- Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.
- All electrical consumers such as, lights and rear window defroster, switched off.
- 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. Preliminary Check

Start diagnosis
- Remove the engine cover with air filter.

Checking internal resistance







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







- Using a multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 terminals 3 to 4 for an open circuit.

Specified value: 0 to 20.0 Ohms max. (at approx. 20 degrees C)

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

If the specification was obtained:

Checking voltage supply
- Crank the engine







- Using a multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 electrical harness connector terminal 4 to Ground (GND) for voltage.

G39 electrical
harness connector terminal
4 Ground (GND)

Specified value: Battery voltage.

- Switch the ignition off.

If the specification was not obtained:
- Check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 electrical harness connector terminal 4 to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay 2 J670 socket 2/87 for an open circuit or a short to 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.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623.







- Using a multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39 electrical harness connector terminal 3 to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623 electrical harness connector T94 terminal 51 for an open circuit.

Specified value: 1.5 Ohms max.

If the specification was not obtained:
- Check the wiring for a short circuit to each other, Battery (+), Ground (GND) or an Open circuit.
- 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:
- Replace the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) G39.
- 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. Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes
- 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) J623.
- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.

Final procedures
After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the mentioned 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. Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes

End of Diagnosis
