1990 Mustang - Supercharged
Been troubleshooting an on-going rough running condition open loop ... closed loop is good now after finding a bad (semi-new oxygen sensor) that was bad. Tested everything under the hood and all looks good except possibly BAP sensor. I am familiar with the testing procedure. I tried measuring the frequency with my meter on the BAP signal wire at the computer and measuring against ground/sig return wire but am getting zero. However, my meter measures only in Khz. Based on this, I thought I should get a reading like 0.157 for 157 hz but am just getting zero. Has anyone been successful reading in Khz??? But, possibly such a low hz reading just reads zero on such a meter. Any expereince would be most helpful. I am not getting a Code 22 but after measuring a Code 22 did show up and I erased it .. haven't run or checked since if it came back ... but it has never showed it head when checking codes. I have heard that they can go bad without throwing a code so I want to check it the correct way but do not know about this meter thing. Don't have a cheapie meter handy which probably only has hz as opposed to khz.
I checked my other meter and it reads in Khz also. When I switch to voltage, I do get 2.5 volts on the BAP signal wire at the 60 pin connector. But I know this is not an accurate way of knowing if it works. Has all other required voltages like 5 volts supply etc.
Thanks for your help!
