The ECM determines the temperature by measuring the current flow through the heater and calculating the resistance. Based on the resistance, the ECM can predict the sensor temperature. The HO2S uses pulse width modulation (PWM) to control the heater operation. The ECM calculates the heater resistance on a cold start. This diagnostic will only run once per ignition cycle.
