Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Cadillac ATS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the appropriate B52 Heated Oxygen Sensor harness connector. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Ignition ON.
  2. Test for 1.7-3.0 V between the high signal circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If less than 1.7 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the high signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the high signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If greater than 3.0 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module. Ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the high signal circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If between 1.7-3.0 V 
  3. Verify the scan tool heated oxygen sensor Bank 1 or 2 Sensor 1 or 2 parameter is between 1.7-2.1 V
    • If less than 1.7 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the low signal circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
    • If infinite resistance, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If between 1.7-2.1 V 
  4. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the high signal circuit terminal B and the low signal circuit terminal A.
  5. NOTE:

    The low signal circuit is tied to a pull-up circuit within the engine control module. A voltage of 0.0-1.10 V on the low signal circuit is normal.

  6. Verify the scan tool HO2S Bank 1 or 2 Sensor 1 or 2 parameter displays 0.0 V.
    • If greater than 0.0 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module. Ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω
    3. Test for less than 1 V between the low signal circuit terminal A and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If 0.0 V 
  7. Verify none of the following conditions exist:
    • If any of the conditions exist 

      Repair as necessary.

    • If none of the conditions exist. 
  8. Test or replace the B52 Heated Oxygen Sensor
