  3. Check exhaust system for leaks. If exhaust leak is found, repair as necessary. Retest system. If no exhaust leak is found, go to next step.
  4. Visually inspect HO2S No. 1 for secure installation or corrosion on terminals. Check terminal tension at HO2S No. 1 and PCM. Check for damaged wiring. If a problem is found, go to step 7). If no problem is found, go to next step.
  5. Disconnect HO2S No. 1 connector. Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, probe connector, measure voltage between high signal circuit and ground, and low signal circuit and ground. If DVOM reads 3-4 volts, go to next step. If voltage is not as specified, go to step 8).
  6. Turn ignition off. With HO2S No. 1 disconnected, connect a jumper wire between HO2S No. 1 harness connector high signal, low signal circuits and ground. Turn ignition on. If scan tool reading jumps from .01 volt to .45 volt when jumper is removed, go to step 10). If voltage does not change as specified, go to step 11).
  7. Repair condition as necessary. Retest system.
  8. Check for poor PCM connections or terminal damage. Repair as necessary. Retest system. If no problem is found, go to next step.
  9. Repair open, grounded or shorted signal circuit. Retest system. If no problem is found, go to step 6).
  10. Remove Bank 2 HO2S No. 1 and check it for fuel contamination, improper RTV sealant (white powdery coating on sensor) and engine oil or coolant consumption. Repair as necessary. Retest system. If no problem is found, go to step 12).
  11. Replace PCM. Retest system.
  12. Replace HO2S No. 1. Retest system.
