Heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) are used for fuel control and post catalyst monitoring. Each HO2S compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content in the exhaust stream. The HO2S must reach operating temperature to provide an accurate voltage signal. A heating element inside the HO2S minimizes the time required for the sensor to reach operating temperature. Voltage is provided to the heater by an ignition voltage circuit through a fuse. With the engine running, ground is provided to the heater by the HO2S heater low control circuit, through a low side driver within the powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM uses pulse width modulation (PWM) to control the HO2S heater operation to maintain a specific HO2S operating temperature range.

When using a high impedance, low current draw, test lamp to load the heater circuit, the test lamp flash may be dim, the scan tool Heater Command parameter may indicate 7 percent, and the Heater parameter may indicate 0 amps. This is a normal condition.
Powertrain Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Type Definitions
Important: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the HO2S heater voltage supply circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the HO2S heater voltage supply circuit fuse is open, test all components connected to the fuse and replace as necessary. |
⇒ | If lamp illuminates, test the HO2S heater low control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is not ON steady or flashing, test the HO2S heater low control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM. |
Important:
• The output driver should detect a short to voltage and turn OFF. If a resistance fault is present the driver will remain ON and the scan tool will display more than 0.0 amp. Less than 10 ohms of resistance may set a DTC. • Performing this test may set additional DTCs.
⇒ | If more than the specified range, test the HO2S heater voltage supply and HO2S heater low control circuits for more than 1 ohm of resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the PCM. |
Notice: Refer to Heated Oxygen Sensor Resistance Learn Reset Notice in the Preface section.
