- Check resistance of heated oxygen sensor heater. See HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR in SYSTEM & COMPONENT TESTING - LX470 article. Replace as necessary. If okay, go to next step.
- Remove the glove compartment door. Turn the ignition switch ON. Measure the voltage between terminals HT1A, HT2A, HT1B and HT2B of the ECM connectors and body ground. See Fig 1. Connect terminal HT1A to bank 1 sensor 1. Connect terminal HT2A to bank 2 sensor 1. Connect terminal HT1B to bank 1 sensor 2. Connect terminal HT2B to bank 2 sensor 2. If voltage is 9-14 volts, check and replace ECM. If voltage is 9-14 volts, check and repair harness or connector between EFI main relay and heated oxygen sensor, and heated oxygen sensor and ECM.
