The upstream heated oxygen sensor is located at the catalytic converter inlet and detects the concentration of oxygen in the
raw exhaust gases; an internal heater reduces the warm up time of the sensor output.
An oxygen sensor (without heater) is located at the converter outlet.
The ECM receives input signals from the se nsors and varies the fuel injector duration (mixture) to provide optimum gas
emissions.

Inspection and Verification
Vehicle Harness Check
1.1. Check for open and short circuit in harness conn ector faults between the O2 sensor and ECM.
2. 2. Check for approximately 12V between heater harness.

Heater Resistance Check
1.1. Verify that the resistance between the heater term inals is between 4OHM and 10OHM at -20°C to 100°C.
Performance Check
1.1. Run the engine at 2500 RPM for two minutes, to heat up the O2 sensor.
2. 2. Check the voltage of the sensor output: Alternates between less than 0.4V at feed back engine conditions and in
excess of 0.5V, see graph.
These voltages are for reference only.
3. 3. Check that cycle of the upstream se nsor output is in accordance with the appropriate pinpoint test.
4. 4. Check that cycle of the downstream sensor output is in accordance with the appropriate pinpoint test.
