Oxygen Sensor after Three Way Catalytic Converter G130, Checking






Oxygen Sensor after Three Way Catalytic Converter G130, Checking

Vehicle must be raised before electrical harness connector for the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130) is accessible.

When servicing terminals in harness connector of Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130), use only gold-plated terminals.

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

Multimeter.

Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

Fuse (SB12) OK.

Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.

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

Vehicles with automatic transmission, shift selector lever into position " P" or "N".

A/C switched off.

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

Ignition switched off.

Test procedure

- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Preliminary Check ] Preliminary Check.

Start diagnosis

- Perform the function test in Diagnostic Mode 06. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 06 - Read Test Results for Specific Diagnostic Functions ] Diagnostic Mode 06 - Read Test Results for Specific Diagnostic Functions.

- End diagnosis and switch ignition off.

If the specified values are not obtained:

Checking primary voltage

- Remove the right vehicle floor cover - arrows -.





- Disconnect the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130) electrical harness connector - 2 -.





- Switch the ignition on.

- Using a multimeter, check the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) (G130) electrical harness connector terminals 3 to 4 for voltage.





Specified value: 0.400 to 0.500 Volts

- Switch the ignition off.

If the specified value was obtained:

- Replace Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) ( G130).

If the specified value was not obtained:

Checking wiring

If the specified value was not obtained:

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 Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module J623, Replacing ] Engine Control Module J623, Replacing.

- Using a Multimeter, check the Oxygen Sensor (O2S) Behind Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) ( G130) electrical harness connector terminals to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector T121 terminals for resistance.









Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.

If the specification was not obtained:

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

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

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is found in the wiring:

- Erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.

- Perform a road test to verify repair.

If the DTC does not return:

Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code Description ] Readiness Code Description.

- End diagnosis.

If the DTC returns and no malfunction is found in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:

- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module J623, Replacing ] Engine Control Module J623, Replacing.

- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the 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 ] Readiness Code.

End of diagnosis
