Check Oxygen Sensor
- Heat the oxygen sensors (road test car under load or run engine without load at high RPM).
- Connect Porsche System Tester 2 or scan tool and read voltage of oxygen sensor 2 ahead of TWC.
Display: Voltage fluctuations between 0 mV and 800 mV.
Oxygen sensor OK.
If a value around 0V is displayed, a short circuit has occurred between the signal wire and sensor ground.
If a value between 100 mV and 300 mV is displayed, limited voltage increase is present.
If a value between 550 mV and 1,500 mV is displayed, a short circuit to battery positive voltage is present.
- Remove oxygen sensor connector 2 ahead of TWC.
- Connect voltmeter to pins 3 and 4 of connector to DME control module.
Display: approx. 450 mV
Replace oxygen sensor.
Display: < 400 mV or > 500 mV
Check wiring harness.
