Diagnostic Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Nissan Maxima and 2002 Infiniti I35. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect appropriate HO2S2 harness connector. See Figure . Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and appropriate HO2S2 harness connector terminal No. 3 (Red/Yellow wire). If battery voltage exists, go to step 3 . If battery voltage does not exist, go to next step.
- Check the following:
- Check for poor connection at White, 18-pin harness connector F66 (on I35) or F68 (on Maxima) terminal No. 12 (Red/Yellow wire). See Figure . Connector is located under instrument panel. See Figure or Figure .
- Check for poor connection at fuse block connector M19 terminal 13L (Red/Yellow wire). See Figure .
- Check fuse No. 8 (15-amp) located in fuse block under left side of instrument panel.
- Check for open or short between appropriate HO2S2 and fuse.
Repair as necessary.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect ECM harness connector. See Figure . On bank 1, check continuity of Pink/Black wire between HO2S2 harness connector terminal No. 2 and ECM harness connector terminal No. 41. See Figure . On bank 2, check continuity of Red/Blue wire between HO2S2 harness connector terminal No. 2 and ECM harness connector terminal No. 47. Continuity should exist. Also, check circuit for short to ground and short to voltage. If problem is found, repair as necessary. If problem is not found, go to next step.
- Measure resistance between appropriate HO2S2 terminals No. 2 and 3. See Fig 1 . Resistance should be 2.3-4.3 ohms at 77°F (25°C). Check continuity between terminal No. 1 and terminals No. 2, 3 and 4. Also, check continuity between terminal No. 4 and terminals No. 1, 2 and 3. Continuity should not exist. If resistance and continuity are as specified, go to next step. If resistance or continuity is not as specified, replace HO2S2.
- No problem is indicated at this time. Problem may be intermittent. See INTERMITTENTS in TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES article.
