Revotron 1.2T

ii. Lambda Sensor :

Component Details :

The oxygen sensor operates on the

principle of galvanic oxygen concentration cell

(Nernst cell) with solid electrolyte (Nernst's

principle). The ceramic sensing element is a

conductor of oxygen ions from a temperature

of 350 C. A heater is integrated on the

sensing element. It is placed into the exhaust

manifold. The sensing element compares the

residual oxygen content in the exhaust gas

with the oxygen content in the reference

atmosphere (air surrounding the sensing

element). This gives an output voltage

between 100mV (lean exhaust gas) to 800mV

(rich exhaust gas), depending on whether the

exhaust gas is lean or rich.

Component Location :

The lambda sensor is mounted on the closed

couple catcon.

Preliminary Checks :

1. Loose/ Damaged Connections between

Sensor and EMS ECU.

2. Check for back out of pins at both Sensor

connector and ECU connector.

3. Check for damage of pins at both sensor

connector and ECU connector.

4. Check the continuity from sensor

connector pins to the ECU pins.

5. Check

for

Sensor

poisoning

/

contamination.
