HO2S Front Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 Checking







HO2S Front Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 Checking

Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing terminals in the electrical harness connectors of the HO2S Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 (G39) and HO2S Oxygen Sensor Bank 2 Sensor 1 (G108). No attempt should be made to repair wiring or terminals on the sensor itself. Replacement of the sensor is required in that instance.

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

Multimeter.

Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

Fuse (S-17) fuse OK.

The Oxygen Sensor Heater Bank 1 Sensor 1 (Z19) has not set a code. If a heater code is set, perform the Z19 heater test first.

Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.

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

A/C switched off.

Ground connections between engine/transmission/chassis OK.

Exhaust system between catalytic converter and cylinder head properly sealed.

Coolant Temperature at least 80° C.

Test procedure

- Observe safety precautions. Refer to => [ Safety Precautions ] Safety Precautions

- Observe Clean Working Conditions. Refer to => [ Clean Working Conditions ] Clean Working Conditions

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

Function test

- Perform the function test in Diagnostic Mode 06. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 06 - Read Test Results for Specific Diagnostic Functions ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.

- Switch the ignition OFF.

If the specified values were Not obtained:

Start Diagnosis

- Disconnect the HO2S Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 (G39) electrical harness connector - 2 -.





Checking primary voltage

- Switch the ignition ON.

- Using a multimeter, check the HO2S Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 (G39) electrical harness connector terminals 2 to 6 for voltage.





Specified value: 0.40 to 0.50 V

- Switch the ignition OFF.

If the specified value was obtained:

- Replace the HO2S Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 (G39).

If the specified value was Not obtained:

Checking wiring

- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to the Repair Information.

- Using a multimeter, check the HO2S Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 (G39) electrical harness connector terminals to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector T94 terminals for an open circuit.










Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.

If the specification was Not obtained:

- Check the wiring for high resistance, an open or a short to voltage or ground.

- 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 mentioned sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.

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