HO2S Voltage Inspection
Note
1. Warm up the engine and run it at idle.
2. Disconnect the HO2S connector.
3. Connect the voltmeter test leads to the following HO2S terminals:
- (+) leadterminal A
- (-) leadterminal B
4. With the vehicle stopped, run the engine at 3,000 rpm
until the voltmeter moves between 0.5 and 0.7 V.
5. Verify that the measurement voltage changes when the engine speed increases and decreases suddenly several times.
