Oxygen (O2) Sensors

This section covers the oxygen sensors used in the 1993-1997 Chrysler Concorde. These sensors are critical for monitoring exhaust gas oxygen levels and ensuring optimal fuel-air mixture for combustion.

Location and Function
  • Located in the exhaust manifold and downstream of the catalytic converter.
  • Monitors oxygen levels in exhaust gases to adjust fuel injection.
  • Provides feedback to the Engine Control Module (ECM) for real-time adjustments.
  • Helps reduce harmful emissions by maintaining stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
  • Replace every 60,000-100,000 miles or as recommended by the manufacturer.
  • Check for contamination from oil or coolant leaks.
  • Use a multimeter to test sensor voltage output.
  • Inspect wiring for damage or corrosion.

Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor

This section details the MAP sensor, which measures intake manifold pressure to help the ECM calculate engine load and adjust fuel delivery accordingly.

Operation and Calibration
  • Measures vacuum pressure in the intake manifold.
  • Converts pressure readings into electrical signals for the ECM.
  • Calibrated to provide accurate readings under varying engine loads.
  • Critical for optimizing fuel efficiency and performance.
Common Issues and Solutions
  • Check for vacuum leaks in the intake system.
  • Test sensor output with a scan tool or multimeter.
  • Clean the sensor port to prevent clogging.
  • Replace if readings are inconsistent or out of range.

Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) System

This section explains the EGR system, which reduces nitrogen oxide emissions by recirculating a portion of exhaust gases back into the combustion chamber.

Components and Functionality
  • Includes EGR valve, EGR tube, and control solenoid.
  • Reduces combustion temperatures by introducing inert exhaust gases.
  • Helps meet emissions standards by lowering NOx emissions.
  • Controlled by the ECM based on engine load and temperature.
Diagnostics and Repair
  • Inspect EGR valve for carbon buildup and sticking.
  • Check EGR passages for blockages.
  • Test solenoid operation with a scan tool.
  • Replace faulty components to restore system functionality.
