    @danman32 Год назад +16

    Hi Ray,
    Love your videos
    I think you mix up terms open-loop vs closed-loop, though I'm sure you understand the principles behind the terms.
    An engine would have to start out open-loop when cold, since the O2 sensors aren't ready to send accurate data or verifying its data, where the ECM uses its tables and possibly historical data to guess the fuel mixture.
    Then the ECM goes into closed-loop where it starts using the O2 as feedback to adjust the fuel mixture.
    It's sort of like dead-reconing navigation where you're just going by designated distances and turns, vs navigation by landmarks, GPS, etc that you can "read" to keep your bearings.
    The former would be open-loop since there's no feedback to keep you accurate while the latter is closed-loop since you're using external data to adjust your navigation.

  • @Straightalk12
    @Straightalk12 Год назад +20

    Yep, I think you found it. Nevertheless, whenever a O2 sensor seems sluggish, it's a good idea to check the sensor's heater voltage and ground circuit as well as the sensor's resistance to make sure the sensor isn't running cool. Great videos Ray! I love how you diagnose problems.

    • @NemoConsequentae
      @NemoConsequentae Год назад +3

      My first go to is (where possible), swap the left & right sensors. Easy to see if it is the sensor or something else then by whether the fault follows the sensor. Of course, this may not always be possible, (single exhaust engine, or different sensors / leads on each side.)

    I had a Crown Victoria that had me chasing P0171's and P0174's for months. At first, I followed what the codes said and I replaced the sensors one at a time as needed only to chase trouble codes somewhere else. The quality of the "new" sensors left a lot to be desired. It felt like I was in whack-a-mole hell and I was replacing "newish" sensors. The fix? I replaced ALL of the O2 sensors at the same time with Motocraft replacements. The crap quality aftermarket sensors ended up being the root cause. Whack-a-mole problem went away...I win.

    I've been waiting for Ray to come up against one of these. A fastener that takes an offset wrench to get a bite, roll the wrench and get some more, flip the wrench for another, then back to the beginning for the next flat on the fastener. Rinse and repeat until frustrated.
    Cotter keys and safety wire not curled up on nearby fasteners gouging the back of your hand, ones estimation of the heritage of the engineer and previous mechanic goes to a dark place.
    I'll now slip in a please on a recalcitrant connector before going full sailor speak, (The phrase covers us past Marines, we honor some of their traditions) But I've learned a sense of Zen watching Ray. That and the GAF meter sometimes just pegs out low.
    Keep up the good work Ray You give us all hope.

  • @jdtractorman7445
    @jdtractorman7445 Год назад +9

    I think the sensor that was in there was an incorrect one design wise. Take note of the holes in the sensor tip then look at the new one. That makes a huge difference in how the air flow effects the readings on that sensor. I experienced this first hand when a muffler shop put a sensor with holes in it in my 98 F-150 quit a few years ago instead of putting in a slotted tip oxygen sensor, it effects the readings for sure.

  • @gene2024
    @gene2024 Год назад

    Ray ... had a similar problem with my wife's Ford Edge, 2012. Independent mechanic found similar codes. Rather than replace the sensor, he told me that upstream was a solenoid, flap valve mixture control that occasionally gets stuck and fails. It results in a sensor 1, excessive lean state. He told me that most mechanics would replace the O2 sensor (had 75000 miles), but then showed me the real problem. No more sensor errors.

  • @aaronbritt2025
    @aaronbritt2025 Год назад +5

    The main thing that tells me it's not a leak is that it's intermittent. Intake leaks don't come and go, they're constant. Intermittent problems are almost always electronic. When you need to work on warm exhaust components, you can cool them off with a water bottle set to mist. It cools the components slow enough that you won't warp or crack anything. I set a blower pointing at the area and spray with water mist.

    @frankchapp9904 Год назад +1

    Me thinks you have your loops backwards. Open loop is when the engine is cold, and it runs on preset parameters, when the engine warms up a bit, it goes into closed loop, where the sensors give feed back to the ECM to adjust fuel trims and such.

    Been there done that. 1998 Taurus 3.0L. Had bank 1 upstream o2 go bad. I replaced it with a Bosch. 3 weeks later popped the money light. I figured it was a wiring issue. 175,000 miles on the car. The readings were slugish to flatline at times. After looking over the harness saw no issues. Bought a Motorcraft sensor and all was fixed. Not sure abought Bosch quality anymore. Usually their stuff is over-complicatedly built anyway. Ah well.

    I hope you're not fighting this kind of gremlin that drove me up a wall on a '95 Dodge van once. It had an intermittent open in the sensor lead in the first six inches of the harness out from the ECM plug. Shove the harness a little to one side or the other and it would either cut in or cut out. The van had gone through two engines without finding the fault; when the circuit went open, the ECM went to a dead rich mixture, and enough of that had wiped the rings - twice. I bought it as a lemon, cheap, and it took me another two months to run down the fault. I scavenged a segment of wire with the correct terminal from a scrap harness, did the wiring surgery to install it, and put another 180K on that engine before I retired the van at 404K. So yeah, your guess that it *could* be a wiring issue is potentially right - but first you have to catch it in the act, like you said.

  • @specvkid720

    Something similar happened to my Mercedes e320. After a week of trying to diagnose the car I finally figured out the cause. It was a simple exhaust leak at the manifold and a weld on the cat.

    Good diagnosis! A small request, if I may: When you are running the scanner and scrolling through the PID's, and the white selector bar comes to rest, that inverted black on white is almost impossible to see on camera, glare or not. It's a bit frustrating when the selector bar is resting on a PID, you're busy explaining it's value and I can't see what the value is. If you could make a note to move the bar to the next one down or up, then explain what's going on, it would be appreciated by me, at least.

    Wet rags cool pipes down, air a bit slower. Rag good, not so harsh as a water dump.

    Excellent video Ray. With the graphs of the 02 sensors, fuel trims and explanations. All through the video, based on what you were highlighting, I kept saying " gotta check that sensor". Again, excellent video. Helps out a lot.
    Saved to my list of Diagnostics.

    Thanks for the great vid Ray. Pretty sure you meant closed loop when you said open loop and vice versa. Just for the viewers more than you, since I'm sure there's nothing I could teach you. As an aside, could you have switched the O2's around to see if the fault followed the sensor?

    I worked in maintenance and reliability engineering in the oil industry. A new part can never be assumed to be good; it needs checking as best as possible. Many ball races for example are already damaged just by sitting for years on the shelf. The is a chart called the bathtub curve that shows failures are generally more common at the start and of course end of the component life than in the mid term life.

      This is especially true for electronics. There used to be a hot "burn in" for electrical components and this eliminated most of the first part of the curve. Now manufacturers are too cost conscious but I used to see rows of PCs being burned in to look for failure.

    Good job! I just did sensor and cat on a ‘06 Pathfinder. It took an hour just to get to the sensor… pulled wheel, fender liner, heat shield, dropped/rat shit strapped exhaust system for the cat. Mustang looks easy.

    You need to diagnose the universal constant of cars fixing themselves upon arrival at the repair facility.

    You need some slim Wrenches Ray there only a few mm thick that would take care of the o2 sensor pretty easy @Rainman Ray's Repairs

    Ray, your friend at South Main Auto Repair just found out that mew doesn’t mean good. Then he got spoiled working on a Cadillac that had not any rust on it and said he wished the cars brought to him were like the ones you work on.

    I had a Nissan maxima with the 3.0l v6 the previous owner has had a p0430 from 7k miles, I got rid of it at 215k, but he had sensors, cats, programming, and ECU's thrown at it. After 9 months of ownership I captured 4 freeze frames and compared them and found the car would not come to temp in winter. Long story short, Bank 2 wasn't getting any fuel it ran on 3 cylinders for a majority of its life

    I had a 1991 Pontiac Firebird 3.1L, I did lower intake per oil leak. Distributor o-ring was leaking too. The firing order is 1,2,3,4,5,6, that's the only in order firing order I've ever seen. And that was probably a little over 20 years ago. That's the engine that the intake gasket says DO NOT CUT LOL. Because to "CORRECTLY" replace intake gasket G.M. wants you to pull push rods because that's how gasket is designed. Pushrods run through intake gasket but I have seen ppl cut it and it's fine. If I remember correctly that 3.1L is set up where Valve Covers cover the Head and some of the intake. So where intake meets the head you put a lil silicone on vavle cover gasket.

    Did you notice that the number of holes on the sensor shield was very different between the parts. Nice job.
