DISPLAY GROUP 042: OXYGEN SENSOR HEATER, BANK 2 AT IDLE

Important note for display groups 41 and 42: Display fields 1 and 3

  1. Display fields 1 and 3 will not indicate any value if the operating temperature of the oxygen sensors is not reached, that means both fields are empty. (Increase Engine Speed to reach specified value).
  2. After the operating temperature is reached, the display fields 1 and 3 must display a value of less than 0.9kOhm
  3. Oxygen sensor control of oxygen sensor behind Catalytic Converter (Bank 1; Sensor 2 and Bank 2; Sensor 2 is not active without engine load.
  4. Only proceed with test after value of less than 0.9kOhm is displayed with in display fields 1 and 3.
  1. Press -C- button.
