O2 Sensor Monitor - $05
The O2 Sensor Monitor lets you view the test results of the vehicle’s two or more O2 sensors. These sensors are designed
to help identify problems that can reduce fuel efciency or increase emissions. Each O2 sensor has a unique name that
identies its location in the exhaust system – cylinder bank location (bank 1 or bank 2) and its location in relation to the
catalytic converter (upstream or downstream). Please reference the vehicle’s service manual for further information.
NOTE: Service Mode $05 is not supported in ISO 15765-4 (CAN) applications – it
includes the majority of 2008 and older vehicles. For CAN applications, the functionality
of Service Mode $05 was revised and implemented in Service Mode $06.
