July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Sensor Contamination Inspection

  1. Visually/physically inspect following items:
    • Remove and inspect the HO2S (B1S1) for any silicon contamination. This contamination will be indicated by a white powdery coating and this will result in a but false voltage signal.
    • Check MAFS for contamination, deterioration, or damage.
    • If contamination is evident on the HO2S or MAFS, replace contaminated sensor and go to next step.
