Diagnosis & Repair Procedure

  1. If engine system check has been performed, go to next step. If engine system check has not been performed, go to A4: ENGINE SYSTEM CHECK  under SYSTEM TESTS.
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect Bank 1 HO2S No. 2 4-pin harness connector. Bank 1 HO2S No. 2 is located in left exhaust pipe after catalytic convertor. Measure resistance between Bank 1 HO2S No. 2 pigtail connector terminal No. 3 (White/Black wire) and No. 4 (Black/White wire). See Fig 1. Resistance should be 11.7-14.3 ohms at 68°F (20°C). If resistance is as specified, go to next step. If resistance is not as specified, replace HO2S. After repair, repeat DTC CONFIRMATION TEST .
  3. Disconnect HO2S heater relay. HO2S heater relay is located on left fender well. See Figure. Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and HO2S heater relay socket cavity No. 3 (Black/White wire). See Figure. Also, measure voltage between ground and HO2S heater relay socket cavity No. 1 (Blue/White wire). If voltage readings at both measurements are 10-14 volts, go to step  5. If voltage readings are not as specified, go to next step.
  4. Check for blown HO2S (15-amp) or IG METER (20-amp) fuses. Fuses are located in underhood fuse and relay box. If fuses are okay, check for open or short to ground in Black/White wire between IG METER fuse and HO2S heater relay. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Also, check for open or short to ground in Blue/White wire between HO2S fuse and HO2S heater relay. If problem is found, repair as necessary. After repair, repeat DTC CONFIRMATION TEST .
  5. Turn ignition off. Install HO2S heater relay. Disconnect ECM 30-pin harness connector C51-2. ECM is located under instrument panel, behind glove box. See Figure. Measure voltage between ground and ECM harness connector C51-2 terminal No. 16 (White/Black wire). See Figure. If voltage reading is 10-14 volts, substitute a known good ECM, and repeat DTC CONFIRMATION TEST . If DTC does not reset, testing is complete. If voltage readings are not as specified, go to next step.
  6. Check for short to ground in White/Black wire between Bank 1 HO2S No. 2 and ECM. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. If no problem with wiring is found, replace HO2S heater relay. If problem persists after repairs, substitute a known good ECM, and repeat DTC CONFIRMATION TEST .
