Period duration is the time between two voltage jumps (e.g. rich - lean - rich) and is therefore a measurement of the aging
condition of the oxygen sensor. If the specified time is exceeded, display field 4 will indicate =B1-S1 not OK.

Continuation
If specified value in display field 3 or 4 is not
obtained:

- Replace Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) before
Three Way Catalytic Converter Bank 1 -G39.

Test sequence for oxygen sensor 1 before
catalytic converter bank 2

- Connect vehicle diagnostic, testing and
information system VAS5051 or VAG1551 and
select engine electronics control module by
entering address word "01" Page 01

Notes:

Oxygen sensor control behind the catalytic
converter is responsible for final control
correction. It is the primary sensor and can
override the signal from the oxygen sensor
control before the catalytic converter..

Component location of harness connectors Page 24
-5
It corrects slight changes in the mixture (i.e. enrichment) via the
oxygen sensor before catalytic converter by holding the oxygen
sensor control before catalytic converter at its higher or lower limit for
a specific time (duration). If this time is in the positive range (i.e. 50
ms), mixture is shifted in the -enrich- direction. If this time is in the
negative range (i.e. -50 ms), mixture is shifted in the -lean- direction.
