Note:
Coolant reservoir screws must be removed and
coolant reservoir must be placed to side in order
to access this harness connector. The coolant
hoses can remain connected.
Test requirement:
Fuse for oxygen sensor are OK
- Disconnect 4-pin harness connector leading to
respective oxygen sensor.
If specified value is not obtained: - Connect multimeter between terminal 3 and 4 for voltage
measurement.
- Switch ignition on.
Specification: 0.400 to 0.500 V
- Switch ignition off.
