Measure resistance between SIG RTN test pin at breakout box and SIG RTN terminal at wiring harness connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open circuit in wiring harness and repeat QUICK TEST. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  52. 85) Check HO2S Circuit  Turn ignition off. Connect scan tester to DLC. Ensure suspect HO2S and PCM are connected. Turn ignition on. Access HO2S PID of suspect sensor. If voltage reading is 1.5 or more, go to step 88). If voltage is less than 1.5 volts, go to next step.
  53. 86) Check Circuit Resistance  Turn ignition off. Connect PCM to breakout box. Measure resistance between PWR GND test pin and SIG RTN test pin at breakout box. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, replace PCM and repeat QUICK TEST.
  54. 87) Check HO2S PID  Leave ignition off and HO2S disconnected. Using jumper wire, connect VPWR and HO2S signal terminal of wiring harness connector. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool, access HO2S PID of suspect sensor. If HO2S PID voltage is more than 1.5 volts, replace HO2S. Clear PCM memory. Drive vehicle for 5 miles and repeat QUICK TEST. If HO2S PID voltage is 1.5 volts or less, replace PCM. Clear PCM memory. Drive vehicle for 5 miles and repeat QUICK TEST.
  55. 88) Check PCM Voltage  Leave suspect HO2S disconnected. Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between SIG RTN terminal at HO2S wiring harness connector and negative battery terminal. Measure voltage between HO2S SIG terminal at wiring harness connector and negative battery terminal. If voltage is 1.5 volts or more, replace PCM and repeat QUICK TEST. If voltage is less than 1.5 volts, replace HO2S and repeat QUICK TEST.
    NOTE: A break in step numbering sequence occurs at this point. Procedure skips from step 88) to step 100). No test procedures have been omitted.
  56. 100) KOER DTC P0127  DTC P0127 indicates that HO2S heater was not on during KOER self-test and testing of HO2S did not occur. Possible cause is cool exhaust system. Connect scan tester to DLC. Using scan tester, access all HO2S HEATER. If all PIDs indicate ON, repeat QUICK TEST. If any PIDs are off, operate engine until all PIDs are on; repeat QUICK TEST.
    NOTE: A break in step numbering sequence occurs at this point. Procedure skips from step 100) to step 110). No test procedures have been omitted.
  57. 110) Check For Crossed HO2S Circuit  Turn ignition off. Disconnect suspect HO2S. Inspect connector for indication of crossed wires or incorrect installation. Repair or replace if necessary and repeat KOER self-test. If no faults are found, go to next step.
  58. 111)  Leave ignition off and suspect HO2S disconnected. Disconnect PCM 104-pin connector. Inspect connector for damaged pins, corrosion and loose wires. Repair circuit as necessary. Install EEC-V Breakout Box (014-00950), leaving PCM disconnected. Measure resistance between suspect circuit terminal at wiring harness connector and corresponding test pin at breakout box. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, fault is intermittent and cannot be duplicated at this time. Repeat QUICK TEST to verify DTC is present. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair circuit. Clear PCM memory. Drive vehicle for 5 miles and repeat QUICK TEST.
