If the HO2S voltage is varying outside the specified range, the condition is not present. - 5
If the voltage is below the specified value, the high signal circuit, the low signal circuit, and the PCM are okay. - 6
If the voltage is above the specified value, the low signal circuit is okay. - 12
The opposite bank HO2S must be disconnected to isolate a short to ground in the HO2S heater ignition 1 voltage circuit. - 14
Resistance within the specified range indicates the HO2S heater is okay.
