Signal Too High. Permanent Fault
Signal too high. Permanent fault
Checking wiring and components
Check heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) resistance between #3 and #4.
Check signal cable between heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) #4 and control module #A18 (#A18) for a short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault
Hint: Use a test lamp with at least a 3 W bulb to determine whether the cable is short-circuited to supply voltage.
Remedy as necessary.
