and
Fault
Diagnosis

Poor
driveability
may
have
a
variety
of
causes
.
The
fault

may
He
withthe
ignition
system,
the
fuel
system,
parts
ofthe

emission
control
system,
ora
combination
of
thethree
.
Be-

cause
of
these
interrelated
functions
and
their
effects
on
each
other,
it
is
often
difficult
to
know
where
to
begin
looking
for

problems
.

For
this
reason,
effective
troubleshooting
should
always
be-

gin
with
an
interrogation
of
the
On-Board
Diagnostic
(01313)

system
.

The
OBD
system
detects
certain
emissions-related
engine

management
malfunctions
.
When
faults
are
detected,the

OBD
system
storesa
Diagnostic
Trouble
Code
(DTC)
in
the

.
In
addition,
the
Check

light
will

come
on
if

is
detected

"
The
Siemens
MS
41
.1
system
uses
resistive-type
oxygen
sensors
.
This
sensor
uses
a
5-volt
refer-
ence
signal
input
and
the
output
to
the
ECM
var-
ees
from
1-5
volts,
in
stepped
increments
based
on
oxygen
content
in
the
exhaust
.

NOTE-

"
On

cars,
there
is
one
oxygen
sensor
mounted
upstream
of
the
catalytic
convert-
er(s)

pipe
.
See

(1996-1998)
cars,
there
is

.

"
OnM52
and
S52US
engines,
the
front
pairof
oxygen
sensors
are
installed
in
the
exhaust
manifolds
.

The
oxygen
sensor
providesan
input
voltage
signal
(0-1
VDC)
to
the
ECM
based
on
the
oxygen
content
in
the
exhaust
gas
.
TO
generate
voltage,
the
sensor
temperature
must
exceed
575°F
(300°C)
.
Therefore
it
ís
electrically
heated
.

NOTE-

"
The

not
a

test
of
