6E-208 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
 The Engine Control Module (ECM) supplies a bias
voltage of about 450 mV between the heated oxygen
sensor (HO2S) high and low circuits. The ECM
constantly monitors the HO2S signal during “closed
loop" operation and compensates for a rich or lean
condition by decreasing or increasing injector pulse
width as necessary. If the HO2S voltage remains a
t
or near the 450 mV bias for an extended period of
time, DTC P0134 or P0154 will be set, indicating an
open sensor signal or sensor low circuit.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
 Poor connection or damaged harness – Inspect the
harness connectors for backed-out terminals,
improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed o
r
damaged terminals, poor terminal-to-wire connection,
and damaged harness.
 Faulty HO2S heater or heater circuit –With the
ignition “ON," engine “OFF," after a cool down period,
the HO2S voltage displayed on the Tech 2 is
normally 455-460 mV. A reading over 1000 m
V
indicates a signal line shorted to voltage. A reading
under 5 mV indicates a signal line shorted to ground
or signal lines shorted together.
 Intermittent test –With the Ignition “ON," monitor the
HO2S signal voltage while moving the wiring harness
and related connectors. If the fault is induced, the
HO2S signal voltage will change. This may help
isolate the location of the malfunction.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
To provide the best possible combination of driveability,
fuel economy, and emission control, a “closed loop"
air/fuel metering system is used. While in “closed loop,"
the Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors the HO2S
signals and adjusts fuel delivery based upon the HO2S
signal voltages. A change made to fuel delivery will be
indicated by the long and short term fuel trim values
which can be monitored with a Tech 2. Ideal fuel trim
values are around 0%; if the HO2S signals are
indicating a lean condition the ECM will add fuel,
resulting in fuel trim values above 0%. If a rich condition
is detected, the fuel trim values will be below 0%,
indicating that the ECM is reducing the amount of fuel
delivered. If an excessively lean condition is detected,
the ECM will set DTC P0171 or P0174.
The ECM's maximum authority to control long term fuel
trim allows a range between –15% (automatic
transmission) or –12% (manual transmission) and
+20%. The ECM monitors fuel trim under various
engine speed/load fuel trim cells before determining the
status the fuel trim diagnostic.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
 Poor connection at ECM – Inspect harness
connectors for backed-out terminals, imprope
r
mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged
terminals, and poor terminal-to-wire connection.
 Damaged harness – Inspect the wiring harness fo
r
damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe
the HO2S display on the Tech 2 while moving
connectors and wiring harnesses related to the
engine harness. A change in the display will indicate
the location of the fault.
