Oxygen Sensor and Oxygen Sensor Regulation before Catalytic Converter, Checking

Heated Oxygen Sensor 1

Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing terminals in the electrical harness connectors of the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (G39).

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

Multimeter.

Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

The Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) fuses OK.

The Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Heater (Z19) before catalytic converter OK.

Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.

All electrical consumers such as, lights and rear window defroster, switched off.

A/C switched off.

Ground (GND) connections between engine/transmission/chassis OK.

Exhaust system between catalytic converter and cylinder head properly sealed.

Coolant Temperature at least 80 °C.

Function test

- Perform the function test located in diagnostic mode 06. Refer to => [ OBDMID 01 ($01): Oxygen Sensor
Monitor Bank 1 - Sensor 1 ] Diagnostic Mode 06 - Read Test Results For Specific Diagnostic Functions.

If specified values are obtained:

- End diagnosis and switch the ignition off.

If the specified values are not obtained:

Procedure

- Remove the rear engine cover - arrows -.





- Remove the vacuum lines - 3 - and - 4 - from the air guide hose.

- Disconnect the Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor (G70) electrical harness connector - 1 -.

- Loosen the hose clamps - 2 - and - 5 - and remove the air guide hose.





- Disconnect the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (G39) electrical harness connector - 1 -.





Checking primary voltage

- Crank the engine.

- Using a multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (G39) electrical harness connector terminals 2 to 6 for voltage.





Specified value: 0.400 to 0.500 Volts

- Switch the ignition off.

If the specified value was not obtained:

- Replace Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (G39).

If the specified value was obtained:

Checking wiring

If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.

- Install the test box.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.

- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module, Removing and Installing ] Service and Repair.

- Using a Multimeter, check the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (G39) electrical harness connector terminals to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector T94 terminals for an open circuit.









Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.

If the specification was not obtained:

- Check the wiring for a short circuit to each other, Battery (+), and Ground (GND).

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is found in the wiring:

- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module, Removing and Installing ] Service and Repair.

Assembly is performed in the reverse order of removal.

Final procedures

After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.

- End of diagnosis.
