Hyundai Elantra: Engine Control System / Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
Description and operation
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) consists of the zirconium and the alumina and is installed on upstream and downstream of the Manifold Catalyst Converter (MCC).
In order that this sensor normally operates, the temperature of the sensor tip is higher than 370°C (698°F). So it has a heater which is controlled by the ECM duty signal.
When the exhaust gas temperature is lower than the specified value, the heater warms the sensor tip.

•
| Install the component with the specified torques. |
•
| Note that internal damage may occur when the component is dropped. In this case, use it after inspecting. |
|
•
| DON’T use a cleaner, spray, or grease to sensing element and connector of the sensor because oil component in them may malfunction the sensor performance. |
•
| Sensor and its wiring may be damaged in case of contacting with the exhaust system (Exhaust Manifold, Catalytic Converter, and so on). |
|
1. | Install in the reverse order of removal. |
