    2. Check ground connection E38. Refer to "CIRCUIT INSPECTION ".

      Is the inspection result normal? 

      YES >> GO TO 3.

      NO >> Repair or replace ground connection.

  3. CHECK HO2S2 CONNECTOR FOR WATER
    1. Disconnect heated oxygen sensor 2 harness connector.
    2. Check connectors for water.

      Water should not exist. 

      Is the inspection result normal? 

      YES >> GO TO 4.

      NO >> Repair or replace harness or connectors.

  4. CHECK HO2S2 GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
    1. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    2. Check the continuity between HO2S2 harness connector and ECM harness connector.
