Oxygen Sensor Location:






To test the Oxygen Sensor, located on the exhaust manifold, proceed as follows.

Oxygen Sensor Circuit:





SENSOR OUTPUT TEST:
1. Start the engine and allow it to reach operating temperature.

Oxygen Sensor Connector Identification:





2. Disconnect the oxygen sensor from the wire harness and connect a digital voltmeter (greater than 1 Meg ohm input impedance) between the oxygen sensor output connector and ground (terminals #1 and #2).
3. Increase engine rpm to approximately 1,500 rpm.
4. After approximately 70 seconds of operation at elevated rpm measure the output voltage of the oxygen sensor while changing engine rpm up and down slightly.
5. A properly operating oxygen sensor voltage signal should fluctuate between approximately 0.1 VDC and 0.9 VDC.
6. If voltage output is low or non-existent replace the oxygen sensor.

HEATER TEST:
7. Disconnect the oxygen sensor connector and measure the resistance between terminal 3 and terminal 4.
Standard Value...30 or more ohms @752~ or more

Replace the oxygen sensor if it doesn't meet the specification.
