Measurement is achieved by comparing the oxygen content
of the exhaust gas to the oxygen content of a reference gas
(outside air) using the Nernst principle. Oxygen molecules
from the exhaust gas will accumulate on the outer electrode,
while oxygen molecules from the reference gas will
accumulate on the inner electrode. This creates a voltage
difference across the Nernst cell, between the two
electrodes, which is the signal voltage to the ECM.

W hen the fuel system is correctly operating in the closed-
loop mode, the oxygen sensor voltage output is rapidly
changing several times per second, fluctuating from
approximately 100mV (high oxygen content – lean mixture)
to 900mV (low oxygen content – rich mixture). The transition
from rich to lean occurs quickly at about 450-500 mV (air
flow (A/F) ratio 14.7:1, or lambda = 1). Due to this, two-step
HO2S sensors are also known as switching type HO2S
sensors.

LSU 4.2 Wide-band Planar Heated Oxygen Sensors
The LSU 4.2 wide-band planar heated oxygen sensors have
six wires:
• The internal heater element supply, which has 12 V
continually applied whenever the ignition is on.
• Heater element ground – The ECM applies pulse
width modulated (PW M) ground to the HO2S heater
control circuit to control the rate at which the sensor
heats up. This reduces the risk of the sensor being
damaged from heating up too quickly under certain
conditions such as extreme cold temperatures. Once
the sensor has reached the desired operating
temperature, the ECM will monitor and continue to
maintain the sensor temperature.
• Output voltage.
• Sensor ground.
• Trim current.
• Pumping current.

Similar to the two-step HO2S, measurement is achieved by
comparing the oxygen content of the exhaust gas to the
oxygen content of a reference gas. However, the way in
which the ECM calculates the exhaust oxygen content is
different, and results in a continual signal. This allows the
ECM to monitor not only whether the fuel mixture is rich or
lean, but exactly how rich or how lean. The wide-band
HO2S is basically a two-step HO2S with the addition of a
pump cell.
The ECM applies a pump voltage across the pump cell,
which causes oxygen to be pumped from the exhaust gas
into or out of the diffusion gap through the diffusion barrier.
W hile monitoring the Nernst cell, the ECM varies the pump
current so the gas in the diffusion gap remains constant at
an A/F ratio of 14.7:1 (Nernst cell output of 450 mV).

If the exhaust gas is lean, the pump cell pumps oxygen to
the outside (positive pump current). If the exhaust gas is
rich, oxygen is pumped from the exhaust gas into the
diffusion gap (negative pump current). By monitoring how
much it has to vary the pumping current, the ECM
determines the exact A/F ratio.

Construction
Projecting into the MAF sensor body is the compact design
sensor assembly (1), which consists of:
• the sensor element (2),
• partial airflow measuring tube (3), and
• integrated evaluation electronics (4).
Figure 6C1-1 – 45
Operation
A diaphragm (1) on the sensor element (2) is heated by a
centrally mounted heater resistor (3), which is held at a
constant temperature. The temperature drops sharply each
side of the heating zone.
Temperature of the diaphragm is registered to the
evaluation electronics by two temperature-dependent
resistors located on the upstream (4) and downstream (5)
side of the resistor.
W ith no air flow through the air flow measuring tube and
over the sensor element, the temperature characteristic is
the same each side of the heating zone and the resistance
values are identical.
As air flows over the sensor element, the upstream resistor
value alters due to the cooling effect of the air flow. As the
air flows over the heating zone the air temperature is
increased.
Figure 6C1-1 – 46
The air then passes over the downstream resistor and alters the resistance value, but as the air temperature is higher,
the value is different to the upstream resistor. This change in temperature creates a temperature differential between the
two resistors.
It is this differential that is used to calculate the air mass flow, which is independent of absolute temperature. The
differential is also directional, which means the MAF not only measures the mass of the incoming air, but also its
direction.
As the evaluation electronics are measuring the resistance differential between the resistors, the air mass flow for the
entire amount of air passing through the MAF is calculated and sent to the ECM as an analogue signal of 0 – 5 V.
The ECM can also detect air flow that is inappropriate for a given operating condition based on the signal voltage, or a
signal that appears to be fixed based on the lack of normal signal fluctuations expected during engine operation.
Tech 2 can display the MAF value in grams per second (g/s). Values should change rather quickly on acceleration, but
should remain fairly stable at any given engine speed.

Checks Actions
Fuel System
• Check the fuel system for the following fault conditions. Refer to 6C Fuel System
– V6.
• restricted fuel filter,
• incorrect fuel pressure, and
• contaminated fuel.
• Check the operation of the fuel injectors. Refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management –
V6 – Service Operations.
• Perform the fuel injector balance test, refer to 6.3 Fuel Injector Balance
Test in this Section.
• Check the items that cause an engine to run rich.
• Check for fault conditions that can cause an engine to run lean.
Ignition System
• Inspect for moisture or corrosion around the spark plug / ignition coil area.
• Test the ignition coil voltage output. Refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 –
Service Operations.
• Remove and inspect the spark plugs. Refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 –
Service Operations.
NOTE
If the spark plugs are fouled, determine the cause of the fouling before
replacing the spark plugs. Refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 –
Service Operations.
• Check for loose ignition coil ground circuit.
Additional Checks
• Check the torque converter clutch (TCC) operation. A TCC that applies too soon
can cause engine detonation, which will trigger spark retard activity. Refer to 7C2
Automatic Transmission – 4L60E – Electrical Diagnosis.
• Test the A/C clutch for correct operation. Refer to 2A Heater and Air-conditioning.
• Check the evaporative emission (EVAP) canister purge solenoid for the following
conditions: Refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 – Service Operations.
− stuck open condition, and
− charcoal contamination.
• Check the exhaust system for possible restrictions. Refer to 6F Exhaust System –
V6.
• Electromagnetic interference (EMI) on the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor can
cause an engine misfire condition.
Using Tech 2, monitor the engine speed parameter. A sudden increase in the engine speed parameters without moving the throttle position indicates that an
Electromagnetic Interference fault may be present.
W iring harness routing which may be positioned very close to a high voltage or high current device such as the following may induce EMI:
• secondary ignition components, or
• motors and generators.
When all diagnosis and repairs are completed, check the system for correct operation.
