OXYGEN SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Oxygen Sensors (O2S) are attached to, and
protrude into the vehicle exhaust system. Depending
on the engine or emission package, the vehicle may
use a total of either 2 or 4 sensors.
Federal Emission Packages :Two sensors are
used: upstream (referred to as 1/1) and downstream
(referred to as 1/2). With this emission package, the
upstream sensor (1/1) is located just before the main
catalytic convertor. The downstream sensor (1/2) is
located just after the main catalytic convertor.
California Emission Packages:On this emis-
sions package, 4 sensors are used: 2 upstream
(referred to as 1/1 and 2/1) and 2 downstream
(referred to as 1/2 and 2/2). With this emission pack-
age, the right upstream sensor (2/1) is located in the
right exhaust downpipe just before the mini-catalytic
convertor. The left upstream sensor (1/1) is located in
the left exhaust downpipe just before the mini-cata-
lytic convertor. The right downstream sensor (2/2) is
located in the right exhaust downpipe just after the
mini-catalytic convertor, and before the main cata-
lytic convertor. The left downstream sensor (1/2) is
located in the left exhaust downpipe just after the
mini-catalytic convertor, and before the main cata-
lytic convertor.

CAMSHAFT POSITION
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) on the 5.9L
diesel engine is located below the fuel injection
pump. It is bolted to the back of the timing gear
housing.
OPERATION
The diesel Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) con-
tains a hall effect device. A rotating target wheel
(tonewheel) for the CMP is located on the camshaft
gear. This hall effect device detects notches located
on the back side of the camshaft gear. As the cam-
shaft gear rotates, the notches pass the tip of the
CMP.
When the leading edge of the notch passes the tip
of the CMP, the following occurs: The interruption of
magnetic field causes the voltage to switch high
resulting in a signal of approximately 5 volts.
When the trailing edge of the notch passes the tip
of the CMP, the following occurs: The change of the
magnetic field causes the signal voltage to switch low
to 0 volts.
The CMP (Fig. 8) provides a signal to the Engine
Control Module (ECM) at all times when the engine
is running. The ECM uses the CMP information pri-
marily on engine start-up. Once the engine is run-
ning, the ECM uses the CMP as a backup sensor for
engine speed. The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP)

ponents. This especially includes the fuel injectors,
high-pressure fuel lines and fuel injection pump.Very tight tolerances are used with these parts. Dirt
contamination could cause rapid part wear and pos-
sible plugging of fuel injector nozzle tip holes. This
in turn could lead to possible engine misfire.

INTAKE AIR HEATER
DESCRIPTION
The intake manifold air heater element assembly
is located in the top of the intake manifold.
OPERATION
The air heater elements are used to heat incoming
air to the intake manifold. This is done to help
engine starting and improve driveability with cool or
cold outside temperatures.
Electrical supply for the 2 air heater elements is
controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM)
through the 2 air heater relays. Refer to Intake Man-
ifold Air Heater Relays for more information.
Two heavy-duty cables connect the 2 air heater ele-
ments to the 2 air heater relays. Each of these cables
will supply approximately 95 amps at 12 volts to an
individual heating element within the heater block
assembly.
Refer to the Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures
manual for electrical operation and complete descrip-
tion of the intake heaters, including pre-heat and
post-heat cycles.

batteries. Cover and isolate ends of both cables.
(2) Remove both the intake manifold air intake
tube (above injection pump), and its rubber connector
hose (Fig. 26).

ment stud.
(5) Remove wiring harness clips.
(6) Remove engine oil dipstick tube bracket from
air inlet connection and fuel filter housing.

(a) Start park rod into park pawl. If rod will not
slide past park pawl, pawl is engaged in park gear.
Rotate overdrive output shaft with suitable size 12
point socket; this will free pawl and allow rod to
engage.

screws to 4 N´m (35 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: If the condition of the transmission
before the overhaul procedure caused excessive
metallic or fiber contamination in the fluid, replace
