Inspection/Maintenance Heated Oxygen Sensor Heater System Set Procedure: Description

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2003 Hummer H2, 2003 GMC Yukon XL, 2003 GMC Yukon, 2003 GMC Sierra, and 2003 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The purpose of this test is to satisfy the enable criteria necessary to execute I/M readiness diagnostics for the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) system. The test may be used to set the I/M System Status to YES. The I/M System Status display on the scan tool provides an indication of whether the control module has completed the required tests. The I/M System Status does not indicate that the tests have passed or failed. When all of the diagnostics for a specific system have run and passed, the I/M System Status will update to YES. If a test for a specific system has failed, the I/M System Status will update to YES, indicating a determination was made, even if all of the other tests for that system have not run. Ensure that the vehicle meets the requirements listed in Conditions for Running before performing this test. Failure to meet the necessary requirements may produce inaccurate test results.
