    This is an excellent demonstration of how to properly test the sensors works on almost every vehicle. I needed it because I am having troubles with my Toyota Camry and all indications from the OBDII lead me to the downstream sensor which is an unpleasant thing to reach. Looks like I can now at least test it before dealing with an unpleasantly hot exhaust system that needs to be dropped in order to remove said sensor. Thank you for a nice and concise video.

    just a note, the second oxygen sensor is not the one controlling the mixture for the ECU, its function is only to see that the signal when compared to the front sensor ist flat meaning the cat is functioning. The front sensor is used to test for air/fuel ratio and tell the ECU what mixture adjustment is required. So your faultcode could only come from the upstream (front) sensor. Downstream would cause a „Cat inefficient“ code on the motor warning.
    have fun, Bernhard

      I don’t know of any. It does not make a lot if sense since if the catalytic converter works fine all it gets is water and CO2 and there is no information about how the mixture was when it left the engine.
      A Lambda sensor is reading oxygen content to identify the current mixture which is only available prior to being converted by the Cat.

      Hi Carl, since I don’t know exactly what your car does it is not good for me to tell you to change parts. I had it on my Jag that just the O2 heater relay was dead which is a lot cheaper than an O2 sensor.
      Can you get a readout of your sensors? Any activity there? The correct thing would be that the front sensor shows a sinewave like activity and if the cat works the downstream should display almost a straight line (konstant voltage). If both sensors show the same sinewave like activity then the Cat is bad. If there is no activity shown on the upstream sensor check powersupply else it is bad.

Cut the connector in half, hook up the old connector to the wire coming from the computer. With alligator clips on your meter, You can read the voltage better. The old oxygen sensor becomes a tool.

      @@joeyperez3974 correct..... What you can do in that situation is buy or go to a you pull a part lot and cut one off. There's only a few variations of connectors so there is multiple vehicles that it will work to. You can also cut the nub off and and it will work on even more vehicles. Only difference usually tends to be the clocking of the pin and length of wire for most cars. Of course not all. For a more universal female plug you can cut the whole outer shield off just won't clip in.

    An oxygen sensor is made of zirconium oxide (ZrO2), a chemical compound used to form the sensor’s thermal-driven electrochemical fuel cell. Energy is generated by the difference of oxygen inside compared to the outside.
    Two platinum (Pt) electrodes are placed on the ZrO2 to provide a connection for output voltage to a control module. An output voltage of 0.2 V (200 mV) DC represents a lean mixture where there is a lot of oxygen in the exhaust stream. A reading of 0.8 V (800 mV) DC represents a rich mixture where there is little or no oxygen in the exhaust stream. The ideal point is 0.45 V (450 mV) DC - this is where the quantities of air and fuel are in the optimum - or stoichiometric - ratio

    ...but mostly the voltages that are measurable that they are absent, or hopefully changing via sensation of O2.
    If I replace an O2 sensor again I will cut off the sensor to re-cycle the connector and wires to connect to the stripped wires rather than probing into the connectors for the next time I troubleshoot if the ECU is sending the heater voltage to the sensor.

Front and rear sensor plugs can be the same in appearance but have different little lugs that prevent them from being interchangeable. The shroud on the after cat sensor has much smaller holes ( like pin holes ) to restrict flow around the sensor. The before cat o2 sensor shroud has holes like, vents, would be the easy way to describe it, say, the size of the smallest type of grains for example, allowing the sensor greater exposure to the exhaust gasses because this one controls the fuel mixture ratio.

Those wires receive the voltage from the sensor, not send voltage to the sensor.

    I have been chasing a misfire on a 95 Pontiac OBD1.5 for over a month. First thing I tested was probe the o2. Getting volt at the ECM signal side (and heater) of the pigtail and 2-4 millivolts from O2 side. Plugged in, probing the wire, I get .4V +/- up to .9V spraying fuel into the TB. Every source I have found said there are no volts sent to O2 but .5+/- produced by the O2 so probe reading says it is good. Apparently the o2 is as good as the information I have gotten.

    Oxygen sensors should be cleaned at 90K and 180K(replace them at 250K) by removing them and heating the sensing portion all around to cherry red with a propane torch, while checking response time with a volt meter. Using a meter while on the vehicle is not necessary as you can just hook up an OBD2 reader set to read live data. On an early fuel injected vehicle this method may be useful. *Edit for those not familiar with O2 sensors: there are four wires. Two are the same color, two are different colors. Connect your volt meter set to DC volts on the two wires which are different colors. Polarity doesn't matter.

    4:00 In an electronics store near my house, I found a multimeter similar to the one you have. Do you recommend buying it or buying a better type of it?

    Excellent young man. You and the sometimes annoying young man at Shrodinger are Awesome :))))
    I tinker and barely know enough which gets me in trouble.
    I picked up a 2004 Durango 3.7 with 115 thousand original miles is a misfire pain in the butt.
    Had a compression test and leak down test which indicated very good.
    Changed original plugs and put new coil packs in.
    Ran for 30 miles and started misfiring. Once it started with cal 3 then 4, switching coil pack around would get it back running for another 25 or so miles.
    reader always has indicated low voltage bank 2 rear 02.
    Also reads IAT sensor has issues.
    My resistance between white o2 side wires is 4.4. You said it should be 5-7.
    It makes sense this could be an issue.
    Best; Tom

      Nop...a faulty oxygen sensor cannot render a vehicle to misfire....quite often compression test misleads the diagnostics...go for cylinders leakdown test, it will precisely figure out issues of low compression (if any) due to ring-piston or intake/exhaust lifters or compromised head gasket.
      Erroneous reading in IAT renders quite rich fuel mixture, get it rectified first, then get your vehicle checked for air leak in intake manifold & associated hoses/pipes or air leak due to fsulty EVAP solenoid...EVAP solenoid is notoriou for air leaks and causing misfire kind of symptoms while you suddenly accelerate after you depressed the gas pedal.
      Moreover, get your PCV valve cleaned and pcv system both hoses checked for air leak or blockage in hose meant for pumping filtred air to head cover

    wondering if I can go thru all the steps on 1 sensor at a time, because my floor jack is too heavy to move back and forth. It would mean that the 2nd and 3rd sensors I have not examined at all yet, will be getting tested warm whereas the first one I tested got the first 2 parts of the test done with a cold engine. Anxious to hear your opinion. Much appreciate your videos. Thank you.

    2005 Jeep Wrangler 4.0 all 4 sensors testing low on heater code P0031 - P0037-p0051-p0057 I replaced all with NGK and still lit on. I checked all the wires, disconnected the PCM, and continuity was all good, Pin 1-3-4 were good from the sensor to PCM plug and pin 2 to ground, my question is does pin 1 heater wire have 12v because I'm getting nothing as I understand on a cold start the PCM will circle a 12V + or 12V Negative signal to the heater. The circle will decrease to off as the sensor heats up.
    Thanks

    Hi JeepSolid, the resistance of my upstream O2 sensor reads at 7.8ohms. On the Wrangler TJ it should be between 5-7ohms.
    Is it a problem that the resistance is higher that 7 ohms? Does that mean there is an issue with the heated of the sensor?

    Oscilloscope is a better device to check the O2 sensor voltage signal oscillating between 0.1 to 0.9 V, with a multimeter it is difficult to catch milliseconds voltage readings.
    Anyway thanks for your efforts.

    Quick question! Do you think that a faulty o2 sensor can cause a misfiring code?

  • @renejacques8288
    @renejacques8288 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I drove my '99 Expedition like 5 hrs ago. The exhaust barely feels warm to the touch. Does resistance reading depend on temperature at the o2 sensors? The o2 sensors read 4.2 Ohms which would mean they're bad unless temperature plays a role.

  • @carlnikolov
    @carlnikolov 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Hello friend, is it ok to simply use the data stream feature on each O2 sensor using an OBDII reader? It seems like a little less trouble, or is this not an accurate diagnosis.

    • @AbuDujana692
      @AbuDujana692 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yup, you are correct...when you see the jumping voltage values in obd data, it means sensor is doing its duty....BUT What if it doesn't show any voltage? Or obd gives you error code for this sensor, will you straight away change the sensor??? No, you need to varify
