Check Engine Light / Increased Fuel Burn

Diagnosis & fix steps

LOGIC: O2 Sensor Positive Current Control Circuit / Open (Bank 1 Sensor 1). ACTION: Check for broken or melted wiring harness leads near the exhaust manifold. Measure internal resistance of the oxygen sensor's heating element circuit.

Red Seal field insights

Sensor Physics: Wideband air/fuel ratio sensors rely on a precise pumping current to determine oxygen concentration; an open circuit stops all fuel control fine-tuning.
