1

 

COMPONENT CONCERNED

 

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS CHECK

 

OK (NO FAULTS DETECTED)

 

FAULT DETECTED

 

OPERATION

 

 

Connections on oxygen sensor and Powertrain Control Module

 

Check for loose electrical connections at the sensor connector and at the Powertrain Control Module.

 

Go to Step 2

 

Presence of loose electrical connections.

 

Restore the correct connections.

COMPONENT CONCERNED

 

DOWNSTREAM OXYGEN SENSOR WIRING CONTINUITY CHECK

 

OK (NO FAULTS DETECTED)

 

FAULT DETECTED

 

OPERATION

 

 

Downstream oxygen sensor wiring

 

Check for continuity breaks on the wiring between oxygen sensor and pin 21 of the Powertrain Control Module due to oxidised or corroded terminals

 

Go to Step 3

 

Breaks in the wiring continuity.

 

Restore the correct continuity for the wiring.

COMPONENT CONCERNED

 

DOWNSTREAM OXYGEN SENSOR WIRING INSULATION CHECK

 

OK (NO FAULTS DETECTED)

 

FAULT DETECTED

 

OPERATION

 

 

Downstream oxygen sensor wiring

 

Check the integrity of the insulation in the wiring between oxygen sensor and pin 21 of the Powertrain Control Module (check signal cable reversal or open circuit on signal cables).

 

Go to Step 4

 

Wiring insulation faulty.

 

Restore correct wiring insulation.
