Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) consists of the zirconium and the
alumina and is installed on upstream and downstream of the Warm-up
Catalytic Converter (WCC).
After it compares oxygen consistency of the atmosphere with
the exhaust gas, it transfers the oxygen consistency of the exhaust gas
to the ECM. When A/F ratio is rich or lean, it generates approximately
1V or 0V respectively. In order that this sensor normally operates, the
temperature of the sensor tip is higher than 370°C (698°F). So it has a
heater which is controlled by the ECM duty signal.
When the exhaust gas temperature is lower than the specified value, the heater warms the sensor tip.
Removal
[Knock Sensor #1 (Bank 1)]
1.
Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery negative (-) cable.
2.
Disconnect the knock sensor connector (A).
3.
Remove the intake man ...
Turn the tire hold-down wing bolt
counterclockwise.
Store the tire in the reverse order of
removal.
To prevent the spare tire and tools
from “rattling” while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.
If it is hard to loosen the tire holddown
wing bolt by hand, you can
loo ...
