Tacoma Calif. Emission Vehicles & 4Runner Calif. Emission Vehicles
- A heated Air/Fuel (A/F) sensor is mounted on exhaust pipe in front of catalytic converter. For testing of A/F sensor, see AIR/FUEL (A/F) SENSOR . Another heated oxygen sensor is mounted on exhaust pipe behind catalytic converter. This oxygen sensor is referred to as bank No. 1 sensor No. 2, or rear oxygen sensor.
- To test heater resistance on bank No. 1 sensor No. 2, disconnect electrical connector for heated oxygen sensor. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between +B and HT terminals on electrical connector. See Figure and Figure . Replace heated oxygen sensor if resistance is not 11-16 ohms at 68°F (20°C) and 23-32 ohms at 1472°F (800°C).
- If problem exists in either heated oxygen sensor, heater or wiring circuit, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may be stored in Engine Control Module (ECM). See SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM in SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - INTRODUCTION article for retrieving and servicing of DTCs.
