Here’s part II of my wideband O2 case study. I cover some further voltage and current testing on this vehicle and go deeper into the operation of this type of wideband sensor. While we found that the low amp probe won’t work in this application, we did find that some of our ‘normal’ zirconia O2 sensor tests carry over, and are still effective during diagnostics. I also got to review some fuel trim analysis and MAF cleaning as a final fix on this vehicle.
