Continuation
If specified value in display field 1 is not obtained
or if value does not fluctuate at least 2 %:

- Road test vehicle in order to free oxygen sensor
of possible residue and repeat test.
If specified value in display field 1 is not obtained
even after road test or if value does not fluctuate
at least 2 %:

- Check primary voltage Page 24

Checking primary voltage

Note:
Coolant reservoir screws must be removed and coolant reservoir must be
placed to side in order to access the harness connector. The coolant
hoses can remain connected. - Disconnect 6-pin harness connector (black) -2- to Heated Oxygen
Sensor (HO2S) -G39- before catalytic converter.

- Connect multimeter between terminal 1 and 5 for voltage
measurement.
- Switch ignition on.

Specification: 0.400 to 0.500 V
- Switch ignition off.

Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) and
oxygen sensor control after Three Way
Catalytic Converter (TWC), checking


Note:
The oxygen sensor before catalytic converter
(bank 1, sensor 1) regulates to Lambda 1. If this
oxygen sensor is damaged, e.g. due to soiling or
overheating, the regulation value may have
shifted. Deviations from Lambda 1 are detected
by the oxygen sensor after catalytic converter
(bank 1, sensor 2). If it recognizes the deviations
downward or upward, it influences the regulation
before catalytic converter, generally increasing or
decreasing it respectively.
