Hi my name's Steven and welcome to my channel based in the UK, where I like to tackle different projects. The projects can vary from one extreme to another, from creating my workshop from up cycled materials, project vehicles, tool restorations and tool creations! And everything in between! One thing’s for sure I’m always working on a project of some sort and getting my hands dirty. Hopefully you will find something you like and inspires you to create your own projects. So why don’t you think about coming along for the journey? Thanks for looking.
Hi, thank you for the reply, yes you are right, sometimes they can open up the contacts of the connectors, luckily on these they are large connectors, but definitely something to be aware of on smaller connectors as you could be introducing connection faults. 👍
Hi, I'm using the Mini Bluetooth OBD2 Car Scanner ELM327 V2.1 For Android Torque Auto Tool OBDII scan tool, and I'm using the torque lite app (free version) for android devices like a phone or tablet to diagnose the code and see the data from the sensor. Hope this helps.
I have a 2008 Nissan Frontier SE V6 4.0L. I have four be CATs. I keep popping codes P1057 and P1059. Which is low voltage and slow to work Bank 2 downstream 02 sensor. I’ve checked and fixed exhaust leaks. Replaced 02 sensor twice. I did have to splice a new connector where the 02 Sensor plugs into. The wires were a smaller gauge than the original and not the same colors. So I matched the wire that went into the original connector. Could the smaller gauge wire cause low voltage or possibly a vacuum leak which I’m not sure how to test properly.
Hi, there could be several reasons for a low voltage reading. Double check to make sure you have got all exhaust leaks up stream of the sensors, the smallest leak allowing air/oxygen in can cause an error reading. You could have an wiring fault further up the loom to the ECU, so you may need to trace the wires through the loom all the way from the sensors to the ECU to insure there is no damage causing high resistance, which would causes a low voltage reading, any corrosion on connectors or damaged wiring can cause this even if small, so ensure any connection on the O2 wiring is clean. I don't think that the new wiring should cause a low voltage reading but can not be a 100% sure. Check for water damage on connectors, even on the ECU. Also please take out the new sensors and check them for contamination, make sure they have no coolant or oil on them. This can cause a bad reading. This will possibly show an engine Internal fault if they have either oil or coolant on them. Hope this helps you out.
Hi, looking at the manual it should be approximately 15.7 ohms, I would be looking for a reading between 10 & 20 ohms , any lower and you have a short to ground, any higher and the resistance is to great for the system to be effective.
Hi, thank you for your comment, I'm testing the two black wires for resistance, and the blue and white for power and ground continuity. Hopefully this reply will help others that view my video.
