Circuit/System Description
|
The heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) 1 or 2 are used for fuel control and catalyst monitoring. Each heated oxygen sensor compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content of the exhaust stream. When the engine is started, the control module operates in an open loop mode, ignoring the heated oxygen sensor signal voltage while calculating the air to fuel ratio. The control module supplies the heated oxygen sensor with a reference, or bias voltage of about 450 mV. While the engine runs, each heated oxygen sensor heats up and begins to generate a voltage within a range of 0-1000 mV. This voltage will fluctuate above and below the bias voltage. Once sufficient heated oxygen sensors 1 or 2 voltage fluctuation is observed by the control module, closed loop is entered. The control module uses the heated oxygen sensor voltage to determine the air to fuel ratio. An heated oxygen sensor voltage that increases above bias voltage toward 1000 mV indicates a rich fuel mixture. An heated oxygen sensor voltage that decreases below bias voltage toward 0 mV indicates a lean fuel mixture.
The heating elements inside each heated oxygen sensor heat the sensor to bring the sensor up to operating conditions faster. This allows the system to enter closed loop earlier and the control module to calculate the air to fuel ratio sooner.

Clear the DTCs with a scan tool.
|
2.
|
Operate the vehicle within the conditions to run and set the DTC. The DTC should not be set.
|
3.

Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that are captured in the freeze frame/failure records data.
|
Note
|
All modules must be powered down or misdiagnosis may result.
|
1.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the scan tool and wait 60 s to ensure all modules are powered down.
