Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) consists of zirconium and alumina
and is installed on upstream and downstream of the Manifold Catalyst
Converter (MCC).
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 the A/F radio is high or low, 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.

Inspection
If idle rpm is unstable or engine stops, check the ETC module operation with GDS diagnostic tool.
And if necessary, clean carbon in the throttle body.
1.
Connect the GDS to the Data Link Connector (DLC).

Checking the washer fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the washer
fluid reservoir and add fluid if necessary.
Plain water may be used if
washer fluid is not available.
However, use washer solvent with
antifreeze characteristics in cold climates
to prevent freezing.
CAUTION
