       If the voltage does not change or only changes 
slowly the following malfunctions are possible:  
     
Slits or holes in probe head are blocked.
     Oxygen sensor has been subjected to 
excessive thermal stress. 
     Contact resistance in signal wire or Ground 
(GND) wire. 
     Oxygen sensor too cold; sensor heater not 
working. 
     Oxygen sensor damaged by contact spray or 
similar product. (The contact spray is drawn 
through the fine cavities in the electrical wiring 
as a result of thermal fluctuations and capillary 
effect.) 
     Oxygen sensor damaged by silicone vapors. 
(The engine draws in traces of any silicone-
based sealants that may have been used. The 
silicone does not burn and damages the oxygen 
sensor.)

Note:  
 
The oxygen sensor control for oxygen sensors behind the catalytic converter (B1-S2 and B2-S2) are without engine load 
at certain operating conditions not active, that means, the third place of oxygen sensor control for oxygen sensors behind 
the catalytic converter can fluctuate between 0 and 1. 
 The first position of the 3 digit display (Heater) fluctuate at certain operating conditions between 0 and 1.
