1 Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? - Go to Step 2  Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle in Vehicle DTC Information
2
  1. Start the engine.
  2. Allow the engine to reach operating temperature. Refer to Scan Tool Data List .
  3. Cycle the throttle from idle to wide open throttle (WOT) 3 times within 5 seconds.
  4. Observe the HO2S Bank 1 Sensor 1 or HO2S Bank 2 Sensor 1 parameter with a scan tool.
Does the lambda value react immediately to the above action?
- Go to Step 3  Go to Step 4

  1. Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records for this DTC.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition for 30 seconds.
  3. Start the engine.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
Did the DTC fail this ignition?
- Go to Step 4  Go to Intermittent Conditions

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Inspect the exhaust system for any leaks upstream from the affected heated oxygen sensor (HO2S).
  3. Inspect for any exhaust leaks between the HO2S 1 and the HO2S 2.
  4. Repair the exhaust leak as necessary. Refer to Exhaust Leakage in Engine Exhaust.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 5

  1. Disconnect the connector for the HO2S 1 that applies to this DTC.
  2. Visually and physically inspect for the following items:
    • The HO2S 1 is securely installed.
    • Terminal corrosion or water intrusion
    • Terminal tension at the HO2S 1 connectors
    • Damaged wiring
  3. Repair as necessary. Refer to Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 6

  1. Turn ON the ignition with the engine OFF.
  2. Measure the voltage from the HO2S reference voltage circuit on the engine harness side connector to a good ground with a DMM. Refer to Circuit Testing in Wiring Systems.
Is the voltage more than the specified value?
4.5 V Go to Step 10  Go to Step 7 
7 Measure the voltage from the HO2S low reference circuit on the engine harness side connector to a good ground with a DMM. Refer to Circuit Testing in Wiring Systems.
Is the voltage more than the specified value?
3 V Go to Step 11  Go to Step 8 
8
IMPORTANT: The normal open circuit voltage of both the HO2S input pump current and output pump current circuits is approximately 10-65 millivolts.
Test the following HO2S circuits for a short to voltage:
  • The input pump current circuit
  • The output pump current circuit
Refer to Circuit Testing , Wiring Repairs , and Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 9

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. IMPORTANT: Disconnecting the engine control module (ECM) may eliminate a circuit short.
  3. Disconnect the ECM.
  4. Test for continuity between any circuit of the affected HO2S and all other circuits of the affected HO2S.
Is the resistance between any HO2S circuit and all other HO2S circuits less than the specified value?
infinity Go to Step 15  Go to Step 12 
10
IMPORTANT: The normal open circuit voltage of the HO2S reference voltage circuit is 2.8-3.1 volts.
Test the HO2S reference voltage circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing , Wiring Repairs , and Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 14 
11
IMPORTANT: The normal open circuit voltage of the HO2S low reference circuit is 2.4-2.7 volts.
Test the HO2S low reference circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing , Wiring Repairs , and Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 14 
12 The HO2S may be detecting a rich exhaust condition. Inspect for one of the following conditions:
  • HO2S connector water intrusion
  • A silicon-contaminated HO2S
  • Fuel-contaminated engine oil
  • Incorrect fuel pressure-Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis .
  • Rich fuel injectors
  • An inaccurate mass air flow (MAF) sensor

Repair any of the above or similar engine conditions, as necessary.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 13 
13 Test for poor connections and shorted terminals at the affected HO2S. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections , Connector Repairs , and Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 16 
14 Test for poor connections and shorted terminals at the ECM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 18  Go to Step 17 
15 Repair the short between the affected HO2S circuits. Refer to Circuit Testing and Heated Oxygen Sensor Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you complete the repair?
- Go to Step 18  -
16 Replace the affected HO2S. Refer to Heated Oxygen Sensor Replacement - Bank 1 Sensor 1 or Heated Oxygen Sensor Replacement - Bank 2 Sensor 1 .
Did you complete the replacement?
- Go to Step 18  -
17 Replace the ECM. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
Did you complete the replacement?
- Go to Step 18  -
