Code 44, Lean Exhaust Indication (Except 4.3L Turbo): Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 24 other vehicles, including the 1992 GMC Yukon, 1992 GMC Vandura Special, 1992 GMC Vandura, 1992 GMC Value Van, and 1992 GMC Suburban. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Sensor acts like an open sensor circuit and produces no voltage when exhaust temperature is less than 600°F (316°C). An open sensor circuit or cold sensor causes "open loop" operation.

NOTE: Test numbers refer to test numbers on diagnostic chart.

Code 44 sets when O2 sensor signal remains low for a precalibrated period and system is operating in "closed loop".
